Mofaz to ease restrictions on Palestinians
By Amos Harel, Haaretz Correspondent, Haaretz Service and Reuters
Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz on Thursday decided to ease restrictions on the Palestinian population, Army Radio reported.
Mofaz in an assessment Thursday evening with IDF Chief of Staff Moshe Ya'alon, Shin Bet head Avi Dichter and other top defense establishment officials, instructed stationing higher-ranking commanders at IDF checkpoints in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
The defense minister also decided that Arabic-speaking soldiers would be stationed at every checkpoint. The easing of restrictions also included longer working hours at the Karni, Rafah and Allenby border crossings, as well as making humanitarian organizations in the territories eligible for defense establishment assistance.

Ongelovelijk... Wat een idee, we plaatsen Arabische sprekende mensen bij de checkpoints... En dat te bedenken dat de Israeli pas 35 jaar de boel daar bezetten! Wat een aanpassingsvermogen.
