The current American laws outlawing torture in the war on terror trace back to the actions of one Army whistleblower over ten years ago. In a two-part series, we follow his story through four combat tours, leading up to his life today as a philosopher. We hear about moral injury, about ethics in the age of unconventional warfare, and we hear from leading philosophers seeking to overturn centuries of thinking about the morality of war.
