Is the US a force for good in the world?: The US appears to have taken a back seat role in international relations. In the US in decline? Or is it just taking stock as it accommodates to the new emerging world order? In the episode of Head to Head at the Oxford Union, Mehdi Hasan challenges one of the world's most influential columnists and authors, Thomas L Friedman. Critics say American self-interest has trumped democracy and human rights time and again, and that Obama's America is no different. So is the US foreign policy counterproductive? Or is America force for good in the world? Friedman also talks about the powerful influence of the Israeli lobby and his experience in Yemen. Joining the discussions are: Seumas Milne: An associate editor and columnist at The Guardian. Davis Lewin: The political Beyond the Economy and the Revenge History. Henry Jackson Society: The former Middle East director at the Next Century Foundation. Dr. Miriyam Aouragh: a lecturer in Cyber Politics, in the Middle East.
