Abu DisMon. PM 20.2.06Noa Y., Judy O.Abu Dis, 14:40No soldiers, only a few people crossing.At the cross roads on Mt of Olives (a short distance after the school) two young men working in the shops there, told us that in the morning there had been soldiers and police together with people from the tax department or national insurance, who had closed the whole crossroad. We report the events as they were told to us: the soldiers ordered a car to stop. The car turned right into the downhill road in order to park after the turn. A soldier ran after the car and hit it with his rifle (a completely new car) and when the driver got out a few soldiers attacked and hit him. After a short while a few officers arrived and orderd the soldiers to distance themselves from the place.ContainerVery few cars, very few pedestrians. The soldiers appeared to be dong their work in a decent way. The taxis that were detaineed were released within a short time.For us as observers from the side there is a sense of witnessing a well-oiled routine, both for the occupier and the occupied.
