BBC World Service - Weekend, 9/11 attacks commemorated

American remembers the events of September 11, 2001

American remembers the events of September 11, 2001.

Events are planned to remember the events of 20 years ago, when al Qaeda launched attacks on the United States.

Also, a new government announced in Lebanon, more than a year after the previous administration quit.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Bahar Dutt, an Indian conservation biologist, author and environmental journalist based in Delhi, and Mark Landler, an American journalist and London bureau chief for the New York Times newspaper.
