Terrorism isn't just in the Middle East, and it doesn't just involve Al Qaeda. Some of the most dramatic—and deadly—terrorist attacks in recent years have taken place in India and Pakistan, and much of it involves fighting over the small territory of Kashmir. Just what it's all about and how it affects the United States, broader issues of terrorism and world peace is the topic of this stimulating talk, "Terrorism and Peace Prospects: India, Pakistan and Kashmir."
