00:30People were saying this war was a total disaster.

00:34This is off the record.

00:36But we offered anonymity to people who couldn't speak the truth publicly.

00:41We were never going to succeed.

00:43This isn't going to work.

00:45The White House says we're winning the war, but these interviews, it's clear we're not winning.

00:49We are winning, winning, winning this war.

00:52What bullsh**?

00:55Officials were under pressure to report only good news.

00:58This goal is achievable.

01:00But people knew the war could not be won.

01:06We're spending $300 million a day for 20 years.

01:1025% is being stolen, and it's ending up in the hands of the insurgents.

01:15Corruption, bribery, stealing.

01:17And the embassy said, oh, don't go down that road.

01:19Don't go down that road?

01:21How about fixing the problem?

01:32We have liberated village after village.

01:34We broke the Taliban's momentum.

01:36We are winning responsibly, deliberately, and safely.

01:39They're lying to you.

01:40They didn't care about what the reality of this war was.

01:44They cared about whether or not their narrative was going to be upset by somebody speaking to the press.

01:50Sometimes the truth is so precious it must be accompanied by a bodyguard of lies.

01:56I don't want to be quoted on this.

01:57I don't want to be quoted on this.
