    Tuesday's terrorist attack in Brussels killed at least 31 people. What is the appropriate response from the international community? Steve Clemonsrecalls arriving to the Brussels airport terminal minutes after bombs went off. Robert Scheer calls for more "old-fashioned" police work from the international community. Republican strategist Leslie Sanchez says Ted Cruz's call to "patrol and secure" Muslim neighborhoods in America is merely "identity politics used for a political standpoint." What is the significance of Obama's trip to Cuba? Should we expect this opening to change Cuban society?

    Josh Barro (Business Insider) moderates from the Center. Robert Scheer (TruthDig.com / KCRW's Scheer Intelligence). Leslie Sanchez (GOP Strategist) is on the Right. Steve Clemons (The Atlantic) is our Special Guest.

    Special thanks to Hannah Tayson for production assistance.
