We look at what the fresh unrest in Syria and Yemen and the ongoing conflict in Libya means for al-Qaeda and militant Islam, and what used to be called the war on terror, both in the short and long term. Will militant Islam be side-lined by the broadly secular nature of many of the North African and Middle East protests or will events like the bombing of Libya be a radicalising element which presents an opportunity to Islamists? Richard Watson will be reporting on this issue and in the studio we will be speaking to a senior ex-CIA adviser on al-Qaeda who knew Osama Bin Laden. Ahead of tomorrow's trades union anti-cuts march we have a report the policing of activists and on the plans of some protesters with no connections to the TUC. Plus Michael Crick will be reporting on why the rally could present a problem for Labour.
