| Summary |
Program #786 : Title: Masters of Chaos. "The special forces of the United States army were created through the visionary efforts of Colonel Aaron Bank in 1952. Although they have made distinctive contributions to the American effort in every war since, it is in the age of terrorism that their skills and tactics are most called upon. In this program, Linda Robinson author of 'Masters of Chaos, ' explains the force and the camaraderie that bonds its members."--Track sheet. |
|
Program #787 : Title: A home as a human right. "In 1947, the American Congress defined adequate housing as a basic right of every citizen. This view was also enshrined in international convenants to which the United States is signatory. Yet even with housing as a recognized human right, homelessness persists at record levels throughout the country. Many feel that this national failure results from misapplied resources and a lack of political will. Maria Foscarinis explains why."--Track sheet. |
|
Commentary #231 : Title: Getting it right. "America's enemy is now described as 'Islamic fascism.' But former Congressman Lee Hamilton argues that this definition of he enemy does not help us forge an effective strategy."--Track sheet. |
|
Commentary #232 : Title: Spotlight on a Congress in institutional crisis. "The fallout over the Foley affair in Congress is being looked at, these days, mostly for its political impact. But former Congressman Lee Hamilton [says] that in truth, the scandal [puts] a 'Spotlight on a Congress in institutional crisis'."--Track sheet. |
