Discussion on the future of foreign policy

Since being elected the next president of the United States, there has been a lot of speculation about the future of the country under Obama's leadership. Democracy Now! recently hosted a roundtable discussion about the future of foreign policy when he takes over. The discussion included filmmaker and investigative journalist John Pilger in Britain, Columbia University professor and Africa scholar Mahmood Mamdani, Laura Carlsen of the Center for International Policy in Mexico City, Iraqi analyst Raed Jarrar, Pakistani author Tariq Ali, and Palestinian American Ali Abunimah of Electronic Intifada. The discussion is available through audio, video, and text via this link.
