Did you miss Tuesday night's "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart"?

Then you missed Fareed sitting in the guest's chair. But you can still catch the segement HERE.

Watch as Fareed explains why WikiLeak's leaked documents on the Afghanistan war are not the same thing as the Pentagon Papers and why Jon Stewart might just be the man to bring back facial hair.

Watch Fareed on the Daily Show HERE.

The news cycle is all abuzz about the over 75,000 military documents released by the website WikiLeaks.org

However Fareed says that these documents don't provide any new insight into the war in Afghanistan and that once again the media's response is "vastly overdone."

To find out what Fareed thinks really is important in those leaked documents read his lastest Q&A.

Afghanistan was front and center on GPS last week.

Is the United States making any real progress in Afghanistan? What about Pakistan? Find out what the Obama administration's man in the region has to say about the matter. Watch Fareed's exclusive interview with U.S. Special Representative Richard Holbrooke.

Then, what option does the United States have left in Afghanistan? Start pulling out immediately? Fight until the last of the Al Qaeda and Taliban there are defeated? Or something else entirely? A GPS panel of experts takes up the task. Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations, George Packer of the New Yorker and Bret Stephens of the Wall Street Journal argue America's future in the region.

Next up, more from Fareed's recent trip to London. Harvard historian Niall Ferguson and Lord Robert Skidelsky continue the debate: to spend or not to spend.

Now imagine having an Exxon Valdez-sized oil spill in your backyard every year for the last 50 years. Sound impossible? Not to the people of Nigeria. GPS takes a look at the damage in the Niger River Delta.

And finally the British PM puts his wallet where his mouth is.
