Etzion DCO
Bethlehem and around,Thursday, January 13, 2005 AM Observers: Mili S, Hava S, Osnat M (reporting)Shift summary: we got the feeling that there wasn’t much benefit in our hanging around without much meaning. Seems like its better to start the shift later, it might make it more relevant.6:20 we drove through Walage cp and Beit-Jala cp – both were empty (no vehicles) 6:40 Bethlehem CP(300) – relatively long line of pedestrians (20-30), people are passing one by one, very slowly. A line of vehicles as well (about 10). No detainees. We were asked to move back and actually had no idea on what’s going on inside the cp. 7:20 El-Hader – no military presence. On the way we saw a poster next to the road saying “Danger! Machsom Watch…” (we couldn’t read the rest) 8:00 Etzion DCO – one window opened and the people are let in slowly, one by one, At least one got his magnetic card, but we don’t have information beyond that.
