Jan Egeland, form UN head of humanitarian affairs. Many of you will have heard him speak to the 大象传媒 and other media over the years.
Nick Kristof of the New York Times who over a million of you follow on twitter.
You'll have seen in the news that at least 80 people have been killed at paramilitary force academy in north-west Pakistan. Many of you expected Islamists to respond to Bin Laden's death and now that revenge is here (though it's worth noting that the Pakistan Taliban have a track record of claiming attacks they did not carry out). All of which pushes the issue of how Pakistan should tackle Islamist extremism to the top of the agenda. Though, to be honest, it was already there in the wake of Bin Laden's death. We'll talk through the issues.
Also, make time to read the BBC's Owen Bennett Jones on the situation in Pakistan. Another excellent piece.
HOW BEST TO HELP THOSE DRIVEN FROM HOME BY THE ARAB SPRING? France wants the rules changes in the EU so that in exceptional circumstances the borders can be closed to refugees. At the moment, there is free movement. This has come to a head because of the number of Tunisians arriving in Italy and moving on. And it looks like the EU is going to agree to the idea. Is that a reasonable response, or should the EU be more welcoming to those in need?
You can post questions and points for Jan Egeland on any of the humanitarian issues that have been created by the unrest of the Arab Spring.

Only if the americans hadn鈥檛 acted as global police, this region would have been a lot peaceful. First it was afghanistan because americans didn鈥檛 want russians dominating the region, then the invasion. Sometimes its iraq, sometimes its libya. Some place they support the rebels and in other they bomb them. What鈥檚 happening in libya right now might develop a new age of libyan taliban with the help of US. Ali Kazmi Pakistan.

Mujahidiin was the creation of USA and Saudi Arabia. Taliban and Al-Qaeda are the offsprings of Mujadidiin, then these two countries have to get the solutions.
