What Are The Three Phases Of The Afghanistan War?
A
Afghanistan War 2001-2014
The war was fought in three different phases. The first was taking down the Taliban. The second was fighting back against the Taliban army and rebuilding Afghanistan into being a better place. And the final third phase was when Obama decided to send more of our own troops to protect people from Taliban attacks.

Jimmy Carter
Jimmy Carter was our 39th president and served from 1977 to 1981. He is a member of the Democratic party and was the governor of Georgia before winning the presidential election. In 2002, he was chosen to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for his work with the Carter Center. (Although I personally find that a ridiculous reason for him to be awarded such a prestigious thing. Of course he helped out with the Carter Center, he created it for christ’s sake.)
K
Khmer Rouge
A name given to the followers of Kampuchea, a Communist Party in Cambodia. This party was created in 1968 and partnered up with North Korea, the Viet Cong, and the Pathet Lao during the time period when the Vietnam War took place. In their own war in Cambodia, they had won and took over the strict military dictatorship of the Khmer Republic. Then in 1975 they created their own government called the Democratic Kampuchea.

September 11th, 2001
This is the tragic event of four terrorist attacks made by a group called al-Qaeda, or so they say. Many conspiracy theorist believe the attacks were all planned by our government. 2,996 people were sadly killed in this incident, 17 of them were the hijackers and the rest were innocent American citizens. Whether this was planned by the radical terrorist group or by our own government, this day is one of the worst days of our country’s history and we cannot let this happen again.
