SIRATYST (Stuff I Read and Thought You Should Too) --
“To ravage, to slaughter, to usurp under false titles, they call empire; and where they make a desert, they call it peace.”

Courage of Palestinians Just for Every Day Life -- A Checkpoint
The Israeli Ministry of Defense announced that the Atara/Birzeit checkpoint was removed, but in actuality the checkpoint still operates occasionally. On Jul 12 2009 a minibus loaded with passengers arrived at the checkpoint at 3:15 PM, the passengers were allowed to continue on their way only five hours later, during which they suffered a long series of maltreatments by the soldiers.
