Fortress hosts Henri and Danny discuss recent military events, including the murder of Jamal Khoshoggi and the insider attack in Afghanstan that narrowly missed the senior U.S. commander.

It’s been a few weeks since we’ve done a headlines episode, so we pack this one to the gills for you.  We catch up on damage caused by Hurricane Michael to DOD bases and our government’s current climate change denying views, discuss the horrific conditions in Yemen and the U.S.’ choice to ignore the catastrophe there, and Danny takes us through the recent insider attack in Afghanistan and the spotlight it places on the continuing American occupation there.
