Hi, Me Again. Afghanistan Is Going Poorly

URGENT FUNDRAISING REQUEST:

Our fall fundraising drive ends on Friday, and we very much need to hit our $250,000 goal by then. If you value the journalism you get from Mother Jones, please help us do it with a donation of any amount today. We can't afford to come up short, and there's still a big 400,000 gap to fill.

Just FYI, nine American soldiers were killed by Taliban insurgents in the worst attack against Americans in Afghanistan in three years. We’re in danger of losing that country. Does anyone you know care?
