"One Buza for one Shekel". So I bought one for each one of us. Ibrahim sells the popsicles, he is 11 years old, a new face among the children who peddle, and he is not allowed to eat the merchandise. He must return with the exact amount of Shekels as the popsicles he sold.

An old women support by a cane got out from among the group of men and had proceeded determinately towards the soldiers, this is what they call "a checkpoint break-in". She ignored regulations, and didn't present her ID nor did she arrive from the women's zone. Despite her slow pace, she passed right by them while looking towards her destination.

A woman carrying bags in her right hand, a baby in her left and her two elder children before and behind her was taken out from a vehicle and was sent to the pedestrians' checkpoint. She stumbled slowly towards the other side of the checkpoint. She is one of the many that aren't permitted to pass the checkpoint by vehicle, because their personal status doesn't comply with the rules of the checkpoint.

The differences in heights between the inspectors in the fortified post, who see the person in front/ beneath them through bullet proof and opaque windows, and the person inspected who is forced to stretch his body and lift his hand with the documents towards them, is often tens of centimeters. It's not only a difference in height, but an additional method to establish the hierarchy.

The attacker did not show up but the blue police did. On the road heading down from the checkpoint they open a checkpoint, and they stopped Palestinian vehicles to check their papers and performed a physical inspection on the drivers. When we ask with puzzlement about this inspection they explained that it was a routine activity. We had never witnessed such a routine.
