PressTVGlobalNews·Feb 1, 2013

Former Ambassador Edward Peck identifies with critics of US foreign policy.

This week the US was put in the spotlight for its unabashed support of Israel despite settlement building and the hypocrisy of assassination drone attacks in areas of Pakistan and potentially parts of Sub-Saharan Africa.
