HEBRON REFLECTION: A morning like any other | | Inger Styrbjorn - CPTnet- When the door eventually opens, a small child comes out. After several walks through the detector, the boy is finally free. His smile is a little embarrassed when he joins his waiting companion with his backpack, belt, and cell phone in hand.
A small girl, maybe seven years, tries to take the shortcut past the trailer, but is observed by the soldier, who hastily comes out and sends her back. When she comes out of the trailer, I see that soldiers have searched her school bag. She stops and does up the zippers and hurries to her school | 28/4/2011 |

When a Palestinian child becomes an enemy | | Joseph Dana - +972 - Tamimi’s internal bleeding is the latest injury to a child reported in Nabi Saleh. Many children have been injured from tear gas, beatings, rubber bullets and even live fire in the village over the last two years of demonstrations. This type of violence against Palestinian children is not uncommon, and sadly, it is growing as Israel explores new options of ending nonviolent Palestinian resistance to occupation.

Modes of Control: Easter at Qalandiya | | Lauren Banko - The Palestine Chronicle - At Qalandiya, we can only get into the terminal through a narrow passageway, one-by-one, surrounded very closely on both sides by high metal bars. Then we must wait at first one, then another, then often another, turnstile. Movement through this is controlled by Israeli soldiers some distance ahead, in their offices behind bullet and soundproof glass. For fun or as collective punishment, the turnstiles are often locked for long periods of time as the queue to pass through them grows. | 28/4/2011 |
