Surrounded


In this house in Bethlehem, surrounded on three sides by the wall, lives a Christian Palestinian family. They described their way of life as being in "an open-air prison".

Testimony wall


On this part of the separation barrier in Bethlehem people have posted their stories of house demolitions and other incidents related to the conflict.

Which way to East Berlin?


There have been, are and will be more separation barriers somewhat like the one in the West Bank. This does not mean it's right.

Stupidness is no excuse


Today, once again, it feels like the world's gone crazy. Gaza, Syria and now also Jordan in my mind: stay safe.

Made in USA


Or maybe not made in, but at least sponsored by.

Refuse to be enemies


There are a lot of Israeli peace organizations working with Palestinians. There is hope.

Drawing the line





Especially when looking at it in Bethlehem it's quite clear that the separation wall does not follow the Green Line.

Hazard: IDF ahead


At first I didn't even realize that this warning sign of IDF soldiers was not real but made by a local artist from Ramallah.

H1 - H2 wall


The separation wall in Hebron is small but effective.


Let us learn



Kids still play and go to school in Hebron. There is still hope.

Conflict on wheels


This car was parked in front of Beit HaShisha settlement in H2 of Hebron. The decorations are interesting - to say the least.

Watching you watching us


I bet they kept a close eye on us from all the Israeli watchtowers, which there are plenty in H2 area in Hebron.

Shuhada street




Palestinians are barred from using Shuhada street, Hebron's former main commercial thoroughfare. Even if they live on it

On top of the conflict




From the rooftop of our local friend from Hebron one can see it all: H1 , H2 and Kiryat Arba. We drank coffee and felt sad.

One frame, many views



Jerusalem, definitely one of the most controversial cities in the world.
