Clashing Views: Islam vs. the West

Listen Tuesday, May. 24, 2005 at 1:06 p.m. in Conflict, Politics

Has the so-called "War against Terror" unraveled into an all-out clash between Western and Islamic civilizations? It seems so, says the Wall Street Journal's roving foreign journalist Yarolslav Trofimov, at least from a Muslim point of view. Fluent in Arabic, Trofimov spent the past three years traveling in the Middle East and Central Asia, trying to figure out why. He shares his observations with Kojo.

Audio archives, transcripts and CDs will be available approximately 15 minutes after the program ends.
