HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_024600.jpg
This document appears to be page 9 of a policy paper or article draft produced by the House Oversight Committee (Bates stamped HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_024600). The text analyzes US foreign policy, arguing for the effectiveness of 'leading from the centre' rather than 'leading from behind,' specifically referencing the Obama administration's approach to conflicts in Libya compared to Iraq and Afghanistan. It discusses the moral and interest-based arguments for interventionism and highlights the rising influence of social movements in the Middle East (Syria, Bahrain) and elsewhere (Israel, India).
