IDF troops make effort to respect Ramadan, can you believe it?


خبر نشرته صحيفة جيروزاليم بوست الإسرائيلية، أضحكني بنفس القدر الذي أصاب حنقي
أترككم مع الخبر (المعجزة)، ولن أعلق (أصل اللي اختشوا ماتوا) ... اللهم إني صائم

The IDF eased restrictions on the West Bank over the weekend in a gesture to the Palestinians for the beginning of Ramadan.

Soldiers were instructed to refrain from eating, drinking and smoking - all forbidden for observant Muslims - in front of Palestinians at West Bank checkpoints.
Throughout the month, the IDF will extend its hours of operations at central checkpoints near Jenin and Ramallah to enable Palestinians to travel freely throughout the West Bank for festive meals at the end of each fast day.
Israeli Arabs will also be allowed into Jenin through the Salem Checkpoint every morning between 9 and 11 a.m. Israeli Arabs will also be allowed to travel to Bethlehem to visit relatives. Palestinian men over the age of 50 and women over 45 will be allowed into the Temple Mount for Friday prayers.

ألا يحق لي التسائل: هل يرانا الإسرائيليون سفهاء لهذا الحد؟
