Well, I hope if any of you aren’t members, you will become one after today, because we’re gonna be running up the phone bill here at WYPR!

 First–we’re going to go to Iraq, to talk with Nancy Youssef of the McClatchy papers.  She’s going to share her first-hand perspective of the political and security situation in that country.

Then, we’re traveling to Pakistan.  We’re going to talk to Shahan Mufti of the Christian Science Monitor, who is reporting from Pakistan.  We’ll also talk to Washington College professor Tahir Shad, a Pakistani who is currently in Argentina.  And we’ll talk with Kamran Asdar Ali, a Pakistani and professor of Anthropology at the University of Texas.

What do you want to know about the situation in Iraq and Pakistan?  Bring them to the show!
