Israeli soldiers shoot to death two Palestinian teens at close
range for protesting against the apartheid wall in the West
Bank; also, the Center for Constitutional Rights sues Caterpillar
Inc. for its role in deaths and injuries during home demolitions
in Palestine; a report on continuing attacks against immigrants

the life and death situation of Haitian Prime Minister Yvon
Neptune; and the Knight Report;

The Knight Report: The hits just keep on coming for Iraqi
police and army recruits with new resistance bombings today;
a US Marine killer of prisoners gets off scot-free after shooting
an unarmed refugee inside a Fallujah mosque; Italy's Prime
Minister criticizes US military procedures, sort-of, but refuses
to withdraw Italian troops from Iraq; Afghan resistance to
US occupation is on the rise; Tony Blair's government survives
an amatuer explosion in New York and an election in Great
Britain; and George W. Bush can now visit Amsterdam without
being arrested (Robert Knight)
