Episode 2

Journalist and author Fareed Zakaria hosts this in-depth look at the major global developments of the week (the title's "GPS" stands for "Global Public Square"), with an emphasis on new ideas and innovative solutions to the world's toughest problems. Each episode also features Zakaria leading a panel discussion and interviewing a major world figure.

The reverberations of the killing of a top general continue in Iran and throughout the Middle East. Tehran sees new unrest as protestors decry the republic's strike on a Ukrainian airliner that killed all passengers. Will that anger amount to anything? Fareed is joined by a panel of experts in Iraq, Iran, and the UAE. Then, how have the West's interventions in the Middle East affected the region? A great debate with Reuel Marc Gerecht and Trita Parsi. Guests: Mohammad Marandi, Ghaith Abdul-Ahad, Mina Al-Oraibi, Reuel Marc Gerecht, Trita Parsi, and Bernard-Henri Levy.
