The Stopover 2016

Non-documentary movies and shows relating to the Afghanistan War including the September 11th attacks.

The War in Afghanistan was a conflict that took place from 2001 to 2021 in the South Asian country of Afghanistan. It began when the United States and its allies invaded Afghanistan and toppled the Taliban-ruled Islamic Emirate. The war ended with the Taliban regaining power after a 19 years and 10 months-long insurgency against allied NATO and Afghan Armed Forces. It was the longest war in United States history, surpassing the Vietnam War (1955–1975) by approximately five months.
