by  |  on February 4th, 2010  |  1 comment

The FPA’s Great Decisions television series, which provided the initial impetus for all of the FPA blogs, has kicked off its 2010 season. They are all worth seeing, of course, but regular readers of this blog will be most interested in Episode 2: “Justified Force,” which looks at Kenya and East Africa in the wake of Kenya’s election violence. You can catch a sneak preview here.
