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.
This week, Fareed talks with CNN correspondent Jeremy Diamond, who embedded with the IDF to report in Gaza and gives an update on Israel's fight against Hamas. Next, Fareed speaks with the former Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister Nasser al-Kidwa, who tells Fareed there is a need for a new Palestinian Authority that can integrate Hamas into its government. Then, Kim Ghattas, journalist and author of "The Black Wave," talks with Fareed about Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah's recent speech and her thoughts on whether the group will likely join the war in support of Hamas. Plus, Fareed sits down for an interview with Bill Maher, host of "Real Time" on HBO. They talk about US politics and the 2024 election, social media, cancel culture, and the state of higher education in the US.
