Beit Iba, Mon 10.12.07, Afternoon

 Natanya translating.

15:00 Beit Iba. We came with a larger group than usual and the commander asked me to explain to the new people where we can stand. This  I did. Young people are checked quickly. In the humanitarian lane the women and their parcels are checked carefully, on the floor. Tomer of the DCO with another soldier brings a table.  The "special unit" which brings in those who try to slip through is not present and there are no detainees. Cars in both directions are checked quickly. An Israeli car with a permit has gone into Nablus. The dog trainer teaches her dog over a period of 20 minutes how to check. A car whose occupants are asked to get out is checked for 10 minutes. Except for flower pots the checkpoint is ready.
