Bethlehem, Thu 11.12.08, Morning

6:00 – 7:00 AM, Bethlehem - Rachel Crossing:  on our way to the crossing, we see that already many people have passed through. 4 booths open. There are no long queues and the crossing is smooth. The woman soldier (booth 4) is very rude when talking with Palestinians. Some people are not let go through – "menuim". At 6:45 the terminal is completely empty – because of the holiday.
