Ten years of US failure in Afghanistan
May 1st is not only May Day, but it also marks the one year anniversary of the death of Osama bin Laden. In a surprise visit to Kabul, Afghanistan, President Obama arrived under a veil of secrecy to give a speech in the middle of the night from Bagram airbase. Countless lives have been lost and hundreds of billions of dollars have been spent in the longest war in the history of the US. Is this visit just a victory lap from the president to remind us that the war has been worth it? Jake Diliberto, RT blogger and retired US Marine, joins RT's Abby Martin for more.
