I spent a few memorable days traveling around Palestine in March 2004. Read about it here.

An empty street of shops in Hebron. They put that protective screen up because the settlers who live in the buildings above were throwing bricks down into the street.

That's the only park I saw in the city.
Some kids throwing rocks, in Hebron.	Left to right: Falah, a friendly old Palestinian who hosted us for a while; Kevin, the American I traveled with in Palestine; Falah's gardener.	Falah, serving tea.
Nablus. This is as close as we got, as we were denied entrance at the final checkpoint.	A checkpoint at Nablus. People enter from the left, and then walk one at a time to the ID checkpoint on the right side.	Town square in Ramallah.

Some posters decrying the Israeli army's assassination of Shiek Yassin, the founder of Hamas (an organization that supports, among other things, community building and terrorism).
