Adam Horowitz reports from the studio
This week on Crossing The Line: The games of the 29th Olympiad kicked off on 8-8-08 in Beijing China, amongst the participating countries is Israel who — although they claim to be the only democracy in the Middle East – have no Arab or Palestinian representation, sportswriter, activist and author Dave Zirin will join us to speak about the Beijing games, sports and politics and whether or not Israel should be banned from international competition.
Also this week, last summer a group called, The Palestine Media Collective produced a parody of the Vancouver Sun. Six months later, Mordecai Briemberg was charged with producing the parody and committing a commercial violation of trademark; we’ll hear an interview conducted by Jane Williams of the Red-Eye collective with Brian Campbell of The Seriously Free Speech Committee about the case.
And finally, 3 Fulbright scholars from Gaza have been told by the US consulate in Jerusalem that they will not be allowed to enter the United States after the consulate was informed of new information regarding the students.

Many Palestinians and solidarity activists advocate for the one-state solution as the best for both Israelis and Palestinians. Host Naji Ali talks with author and professor Michael Neumann who argues that the one-state solution is an illusion rather than a practical and possible solution to the conflict.
Next, Israeli Occupation Forces have been given new orders that allow troops to use live rounds against Palestinians demonstrating against the apartheid wall in Jerusalem. Author and activist Anna Baltzer joins Ali to discuss these latest tactics and the broader implications they have on resistance to the occupation.
And as always, Crossing the Line begins with “This Week in Palestine,” a service provided by The International Middle East Media Center.
