From PRI, Public Radio International and KCRW Santa Monica, this is To the Point.

Politics in Pakistan, an international terror.

Hello again, I'm Orman Alley, and this is To the Point from Public Radio International.

A daily look at the issues, Americans care about most.

Terrorists trained in northwest Pakistan have wreaked havoc in Europe.

There are a real threat to the U.S. and its interests.

Despite billions in American aid, President Pervez Musharraf, the region is increasingly dangerous.

The newly elected government has the incentive to neutralize terrorist leaders

unless it's diverted by political

infighting. On To the Point, we'll hear about Osama bin Laden's approval ratings and talk to a

Pakistani politician who survived two suicide bombings as the U.S. reviews where the money went.

On reporter's notebook later on, corporate America embraces second life.

First, here's the news.

Support for To the Point comes from subscribers of KCRW Santa Monica

and from the Public Radio International Program Fund,

whose contributors include the Ford Foundation and the John D. and Catherine

T. MacArthur Foundation. Hello, again. Warren Alney back with To the Point, President

Pervez Musharraf has not captured or killed Osama bin Laden. Maybe Pakistan's new coalition

will. On to the point, political changes in Pakistan make terrorist leaders increasingly vulnerable

as the U.S. reviews its billions of

dollars in aid. A survivor of two suicide bombings talks about the urgency of immediate action

to reduce real threats to Europe and America. We'll talk with him and others tonight.
