Robert Fisk on the Presidential Debate, Iraq, Palestine and the International Criminal Court

As the civilian death toll in Iraq, Palestine and Israel rises, Bush and Kerry face off in the first presidential debate. The debate focused on foreign policy, as agreed by both campaigns and Iraq clearly dominated the discussion. We hear excerpts of the debate and speak with longtime Middle East correspondent Robert Fisk of the London Independent about the invasion and occupation of Iraq, "democracy" in Afghanistan, the Occupied Territories of Palestine–which were never mentioned in the debate–and Bush’s blanket refusal to join the International Criminal Court. [includes rush transcript]
