Love of the Land..
03 April '12..
Posted a few days ago, this Youtube is rather typical of a genre of Pallywood heroic protest films, that with an army of photographers in tow, resembles something quite close to a 3 ring circus. One can choose whatever one finds to be most interesting, one time the photographer behavior, the next time, aggressively non-violent rock throwers shielding themselves with Red Crescent Ambulances, during the loading of purported injured. Also, not to be upstaged, a group of silly American/Europeans chanting their slogans during an impromptu moment before the cameras. The choices are virtually unlimited, hence the title, The Qalandiya 3 Ring Circus.
A few highlights:
00:15 Photographers assemble for the pre-game show
00:24 Throw and get behind that Red Crescent Ambulance
00:28 Photographers accompany rock-throwers on their first foray. About a 1:1 ratio
01:47 Quite a bank of photographers on the left-side getting the action photos
05:42 Any idea who this character is?
06:51 Another great photo-op, kneeling in front of van.
08:59 and 09:32-09:35 Those Red Crescents Ambulances really make the perfect shield, while they load up their customers.
10:20-10:45 The American/Europeans, wishing they had been born 3rd world, make their contribution to the revolution.

(This text is uncorrected and as posted with film.Y.) About 1,000 protestors marched from the center of Qlandia refugee camp. When see'ing the march the soldiers unleashed the scream device and after and all together tha skunk and mass of tear gas,
Then they used a rubber coated bullet canon, every time it fires, someone gets heart, that once you hear the sound of the canon you have a few seconds till it hits and you never know were...
and that the best thing to do is find a cover if you can and cover your head, try to be as small as you can. During the protest their where a few attempts by two groups to push forword by a non-violent march towards the barrier and the soldiers.
Around 80 protestors needed meddical care, mostly from coated rubber bullets hits, 12 where evicted to hospital.
