Video - Harsh conditions persist at checkpoints where Palestinian laborers enter Israel | | B`Tselem - "Many laborers arrived at the checkpoint even before 12:30 A.M., and there were very long lines by 3:30 A.M. There were insufficient inspection lanes for the number of people wishing to go through the checkpoint. The researchers were told that some of the people in line are sent for an additional inspection procedure conducted in designated rooms that are overcrowded and have neither chairs nor any air conditioning"

Gaza hospital chosen for solar power project | | Rami Almeghari -
Electronic Intifada
"Known as Sunshine4Palestine (sunshine4palestine.com), the project aims to launch in early 2014. It has a target of raising $215,000 in donations by then. Achieving this target could require much effort, as the project now has just $7,000 in its coffers.The project will require construction of a new roof for the hospital, at an estimated cost of $38,500. By storing power harnessed from the sun in batteries, the system should be able to power the hospital throughout the day and night." ca | 18/10/2013 |

"Atta, an unarmed Palestinian refugee of 12 years who just wanted his school bag back was shot in the stomach. The bullet—a live fire bullet—exited through his back but not before severing his spinal cord. The shot damaged his liver, lungs, pancreas and spleen and has left him paralyzed from the waist down.What possible explanation could there be for this barbaric act? Defense for Children International, an NGO that works to document and advocate on behalf of children’s rights, noted on this incident:"Eyewitness reports show that the situation was calm, that no clashes were taking place at the time and there was no “mortal danger” to Israeli forces that would allow the use of live ammunition." ca | 4/10/2013 |

Towards a Third Intifada? | | Al Ahram Weekly -
"Throughout recent months, clashes between Palestinian protestors and the Israeli army have led observers to believe that a Third Intifada may now materialise.A new group called the Intifada Youth Coalition has been leading the calls to protest against the Israeli encroachments on the sacred sites. While there was no massive turnout of protestors last Friday, Palestine watchers are keeping an eye on such youth-led initiatives to monitor signs of a Third Intifada.Few if any are paying attention to the peace talks that resumed in August after a five-year lull." ca | 4/10/2013 |

Road 443: More Evidence of a Long Deception | | Gershom Gorenberg - The Daily Beast - "As a journalist covering settlements, I can`t avoid West Bank roads. In fact, no Jerusalemite can really avoid highways cutting through occupied territory; the main route from Tel Aviv to the capital briefly crosses the Green Line. But I have a particular distaste for 443, the secondary route, a highway built on layers of deception" | 8/10/2013 |

Jerusalem’s system of checkpoints inside Palestinian neighborhoods of the holy city | | Allison Deger - Mondoweiss - Welcome to a-Zeitim crossing, one of the newer divisions inside of Jerusalem. Although hailed as an undivided capital, where Jewish-Israelis can trot from neighborhood to neighborhood, increasingly intractable metal is constructed between Palestinian localities. Like plantar warts, these checkpoints spread on the ridges and lowlands, hidden unless I look for them.-rh | 23/10/2013 |
