War Update
The Battle for Baghdad continues, with US forces making forays into the heart of the city. Hal Kempfer, a military analyst for ABC 7 News and a Reserve Marine Lt. Colonel, joins host Larry Mantle to give an update.
Syria And The Axis Of Evil
Secretary Rumsfeld has had stern words for Syria in the last couple of days. So have Colin Powell and Ari Fleischer. They warn Syria to "ponder the implications" of its alleged support of terrorism, -development of chemical weapons and -harboring members of Saddam Hussein's regime. Is Syria about to join the infamous "Axis of Evil," along with Iran and North Korea? What are the implications of this kind of talk for America? Joining host Larry Mantle to talk about America's latest saber-rattling with Syria, and how Syria might fit into the "Axis" is Dr. Jim Walsh, a political scientist and Research Fellow at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government.
