terrorist network. Guests: Ned Walker, Middle East Institute; Richard
Perle, American Enterprise Inst.; Charles Duelfer, CSIS

All Things Considered (4pm - 7pm)
        Playwright Tony Kushner spent four years learning about
Afghanistan to write his play, "Homebody/Kabul." The play opens this

with Kushner about his unintentional timing.
