Full Program	LISTEN TO FULL PROGRAM
Part 1	We begin and go to Tehran, Iran and speak with Ali Arouzi who is the NBC Bureau Chief in Tehran and one of the few western journalists operating in that country. We discuss the arrival of U.N. nuclear inspectors in Iran and the brinksmanship over the increasingly severe sanctions that might lead Iran to cut off oil to its European customers who have joined the U.S. in the sanctions.
Part 2	Then we get another perspective on the growing tensions between Iran and the West with Kelly Golnoush Niknejad, who is the Editor-in-Chief of Tehran Bureau, an independent source of news on Iran that is in partnership with PBS’s Frontline. We discuss the recent report in the New York Times that Israeli war planners think a limited attack on Iran may not lead to the catastrophic consequences many are predicting.
Part 3	Then finally we go to Cairo, Egypt and speak with Sherif Gaber who is an independent blogger active with the group “No Military Trials for Civilians”. We discuss the standoff between the demonstrators in Tahrir Square and the ruling military regime that is reluctant to cede power and is holding the son of a Cabinet Secretary in the Obama White House claiming “foreign interference” in an apparent attempt to distract angry Egyptians from the regime’s intransigence.
