00:01 The Knight Report: US-supplied Israeli warplanes enter Lebanese airspace; Ramallah reels from its latest invasion; and the government of General Ariel Sharon defies the United Nations with the continued construction of the "Apartheid Wall" which the American Press is now calling merely "a fence".

02:58 Update on Occupied Palestine: Dennis talks with 21 year-old human rights activist Laura Gordon, a Jewish-American observer with the International Solidarity Movement who has spent 7 months documenting events and conditions in the southern Gaza town of Rafah.
