This week on Crossing The Line. The one-state vs two-state debate continues. Previously on this program, we featured Professor Michael Neumann arguing that a one-state option was more illusion rather than reality. This week, we'll feature former CIA analyst and Middle East expert Kathleen Christison speaking on how a two-state solution would not be possible given the structure of the region.

Then later in the podcast The War's Toll compiled and read by Scott Burgwin of the Stand Independent News Service, all that and more coming up, but first the news from Palestine.

This week on Crossing The Line, in the past year seven have been killed and in Iraq alone 177 since March 2003; of course I'm speaking about journalists. Today on a special Crossing The Line, we'll talk with Mohammed Omer, a Palestinian journalist based in Rafah refugee camp of the Gaza Strip about the dangers of reporting the truth while under occupation.

In addition we'll talk with Joel Campagna a journalist and human rights activist whose organization The Committee to protect Journalists defends the rights of reporters to work freely without fear of reprisal from governments and armed combatants alike, all of this and more straight ahead, but first the news from Palestine.

This week on Crossing The Line, the government of Ehud Olmert continues settlement expansion even while peace talks with Palestinians slowly move forward, and US officials state that Israel must cease with any new construction. Crossing The Line contributing producer Nora Barrows-Friedman takes an investigative look into this illegal practice, all of this and more straight ahead, stay with us.

This week on Crossing The Line, Egypt will be tasked with supplying electricity to the Gaza Strip's 1.4 million residents in the near future, but will Israel allow this service to continue if rocket attacks do not cease?; Dr. Eyad al-Sarraj founder and director of the Gaza Community Mental Health Program joins us to talk about it.

Also this week, more activists are mobilizing in the United States to stop the Israeli occupation of Palestine, but our guest today says that Palestinian Americans need to become more involved to ending the 40-year old occupation. Nadeen Elshorafa a Palestinian American activists joins to discuss her efforts to mobilize the Palestinian, Arab American and Muslim youth. All of this coming up stay tuned, but first a news feature prepared by the team of IMEMC commemorating Land Day.
