The United States is escalating the war in Afghanistan, just recently attacking a Taliban-held town in the Southern part of the country. Marines say their attack was met with fierce resistance, so they suspect that the Taliban knew of the attack beforehand. US Generals are warning the public that the Taliban is gaining momentum and to expect more casualties in the months to come. July already marks the deadliest month for US troops in the region since 2001 and while some Americans are losing support for the war, others are questioning why the United States is fighting in Afghanistan in the first place. RT's Dina Gusovsky speaks to Geoff Millard, Chair of the Iraq Veterans Against the War.
