01

Do you believe military interventions can ever be justified when they involve regime change? What would you say to someone who argues that removing dictators is always morally right?

02

The audio suggests oil resources are driving this policy. Do you think countries should use military force to secure natural resources? How would you defend your position?

03

Do you agree that there's "no foot on the brake" in current U.S. foreign policy? What examples from your own knowledge would you use to support or challenge this view?

04

The experts call this operation "thuggery." Do you think this is fair language to use about a country's foreign policy? What would you say to someone who claims this is just strong diplomacy?

05

Do you believe international law should limit what powerful countries can do, even if they think they're acting for good reasons? How would you respond to someone who says "might makes right" in international relations?
