An armless man stood and looked over through the fence at a police car. "Stand away from the fence!- don't come near the fence!- don't you understand Hebrew?!..." Two days ago on his way from the Friday prayers at El-Aqsa, a police officer took his ID. Today he returned to get his ID back. "That's him, over there, behind the fence, the man who is missing an arm" We explained to Moti the police officer."He could be also missing a foot", said the BP officer guarding officer Moti. Moti said that they wanted to punish him because his daughter did not have her birth certificate. He suggested that it might be at the police station behind the CP, maybe at the border police base in Atarot, or maybe at the police station in Nave Ilan or perhaps they simply shoved into one of those complaint boxes.

Muhammad, who was arrested yesterday by a border police force, accusing him of throwing stones at Jews on "Land Day". Told us that his hands were handcuffed, his eyes were blindfolded and he was placed inside a Jeep that took him to Atarot base. Blows to the head, he demonstrated with his fists. He was warned to never go back to work through this checkpoint. "Go to work in Ramallah and don't let us ever see you again near this checkpoint. I don't throw stones he said. I have a baby and I need money to feed him". Hammed who sat by him showed the fresh injuries he sustained on his arm, he was beaten by soldiers, and then he pulled his trousers up and bared a thigh scared from bullet shots. "He has more like these on his back", said Muhammad.

A seven year old child who was injured in a car accident in Ramallah was taken out from a Palestinian ambulance and into an Israeli one, all while maintaining Israeli safety procedures which were in fact no more than unnecessary shaking of the child which enhanced his suffering.

Fadi hid his head inside the coat and pushed a cart of bananas toward the checkpoint entrance. Perhaps there he might find some customers, perhaps he will manage to earn a few Shekels for his family in Jenin. Taking the day off isn't an option for someone who has to provide for his wife and children.

At the deserted territory over which no authority takes responsibility, the place which is a 'no man's land", but according to the maps belongs to the city of Jerusalem piles of garbage were set fire next to the wall that surrounds the checkpoint. This is the only option the residents of the refugee camp have to get rid of this sanitary hazard that accumulates into mountains of garbage. The claim made by the workers of the municipality that they avoid the place for fear of violence and attacks, are unconvincing in light of the raids performed by the inspectors on paddlers, hunting down children as well as men, events which occur every day in that area.

One child who had passed through the turnstile before his mother had, when the soldiers' post had been abandoned and the turnstile was disconnected. He was trapped. It took us nearly thirty minutes to convince the soldiers and officers to send someone to press the releasing button.

The queues were shorter but many younger people were pushing, shouting and climbing the separation rails.

An ambulance from Jenin is arriving the CP and being inspected. On it there is a 22-day-old newborn in critical condition in an incubator, who’ll be accompanied by a doctor and perhaps by a family member as well and will be moved to an ambulance from the Red Crescent station on Mount of Olives which will take him to the Maqasid Hospital in Jerusalem.

The lad had been hassled for an hour and a half, suffering from excruciating pain, laying on a stretcher in the ambulance that took him from Nablus to Mukased hospital in East Jerusalem, where a surgery was scheduled for him. He was diagnosed with a fracture to the pelvis and the pain ran from there up to his spine. Despite the fact that the Red Crescent had prepared all the necessary permits in advance, the soldiers at the checkpoint wouldn't allow the ambulance driver to cross to the other side....... After numerous calls .... it turned out that coordination had been made, there really was no reason for the hold up and the torture. But after all, the victim is a Palestinian. His time and pain can't be assessed nor are they of any value. No one took responsibility..... they just thoroughly inspected the documentations, scavenged through his and his mother's personal belongings in public and wrote down the license plate number of the ambulance and information of the driver from Jerusalem.......(MW report 27.11.11pm)

Seven o'clock at the CP. A laborer who arrived at the revolving gate at 06:50 came through at 07:30 – forty minutes. He exited on the Israeli side at 09:05. He’d waited another hour and thirty-five minutes in the fenced corridor. A total of two hours and a quarter.

A varied crowd congregates at the “humanitarian” gate. Laborers also try their luck there; if they don’t get through they’re stuck and have no way to extricate from the congestion. It’s impossible for old people who have difficulty standing, for the ill and for infants to handle this line.

The humanitarian gate is locked on Fridays and the sick and the old have to wait a long time in long queues.
