checkpoint bethlehem
Originally uploaded by nostalgist
We went out of Bethlehem today through the checkpoint. You walk through a long enclosed path - it feels like you're being led to slaughter. Then you're in a big bright shack where you need to get buzzed through one gate to go through the metal detector and then through another to get your papers checked. The soldier on duty was in a bad mood and kept yelling at everyone - she called one Arab women an idiot because she didn't understand her Hebrew instructions. It's pretty nasty, and this is apparently one of the nicer checkpoints - and it wasn't all that busy, and there were no real delays.
