Letter from Jerusalem
Life in Middle East full of contradiction
By Sandra Clark
Editor's note: Brussels resident,
Sandra Clark, is studying in
Jerusalem. She will be writing letters
to The Citizen to share her experi-
ences with readers.
Oct. 25; Ganim, Israel
Tomorrow Alan (her son) will take
me to Jerusalem for my study time.
The flight here was sort of
uneventful. Because of the tensions

in the world they rerouted my flight
through Milan instead of Rome.
They are not allowing any flight con-
nections of less than one hour now.
They had changed the departure
from 10:05 a.m. to 9:25 a.m.
At 10 a.m. we boarded the bus that
would take us out to where the
planes were parked. Shortly there-
after they unloaded us from the bus,
gave us transit passes and we waited
at the desk for further word. Ten
minutes later they loaded us back on
the same bus.
This time we went out to where
two airbus airplanes were parked. As
we got there, the people bound for
Zurich were deplaning and walking
to the plane parked beside it. As soon
as they were all off, we went on to
that plane and took off. After a refu-
elling stop in Cyprus we made it Tel
Aviv about 1.5 hours after schedule.
I walked out of security at about 4
p.m.
Life here is -a contradiction.
Shopping in Afula, we went to the
'super' and paid for what looked like
a huge cart of groceries: However,
this included two cartons (24 litres)
of water so it was really about a bas-
ket of normal food. The water is
because the Palestinians have cut off
the water to Ganim- and Kadim. The
water being tanked in is not very
good.
We walked with Alan to baby
school and took pictures of the little
ones having their breakfast. Dogs are
being prepared for a big dog show on
-Saturday, and a television reporter
comes to interview the family as
background for an article to be done
on the dog show.
On the other hand Alan wears a
handgun in a holster at all times out
of the house. When we cross the bar-
ricade into the occupied territories it
comes out and lays on his lap. At the
same time the seatbelts are taken off.
We can wait for an escort along the
special road to the gate of the settle-
ment or we can go alone. Either way
you move right along at a good
speed. There are deep ditches dug
along the roads so vehicles can't
avoid the security checks.
The road to Jenin was open for two
days a while ago but someone used it
to get out and shoot at the Israelis so
they closed it again.
On the news today we heard that a
03-year-old girl has been raped by a
gang of boys. Life goes on as usual,
I guess.
Just as I was-going to sign off here
we heard the boom of tanks bombing
Jenin. Hopefully the four booms will
be all we hear.
