Morning
Route 60:
7:30  Hussan – People come to the police station to inquire about matters affecting them.

7:45  Al Nashshash – Ditto.

8:00  Etzion DCL – About 50 people waiting on line to obtain a magnetic cardinfo-icon.  The policeman is at the DCO.

8:30  Beit Ummar – People come to make inquiries about matters involving the police.

9:00  Nabi Yunis – Ditto.

On the way, as usual, a soldier or two scattered along the road, armed and helmeted like on a battlefield.  Jeeps and Hummers also peek from fields, vineyards and alongside houses.

Halhul:
An observation balloon floats above Carmei Tzur, and the police also make their contribution:  police officers sit in a car bearing civilian plates, lying in wait for cars making an illegal turn north from Halhul.  Reminder:  50 meters of a new, wide road have been paved at the northern entrance of Halhul, but people leaving the town are allowed only to turn south.  To reach Beit Ummar – half a kilometer to the north – they have to drive two kilometers to the first entrance to Hebron (Nabi Yunis) and then drive back north.

When we drove by we saw that two Palestinian cars had been caught by the police.
