On this edition, U.S. forces capture the man linked to the 1998 bombing of American Embassies in Nairobi and Tanzania. Navy SEALs also went after a militant believed responsible for last month’s Kenyan mall massacre, but were forced to abort the mission under heavy fire. Later: is traditional higher education still the answer?
