Season 2011 Episode 1020 | 52m 54s

Tonight on the program, Pakistan openly demands the U.S. limit covert activities on the ground, stirring fresh tensions between the allies. Also, we examine China's ongoing effort to balance its economic ambitions with their mounting environmental challenges. Finally, on the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War, we look at the facts and fiction of the bloodiest conflict in U.S. history.
