This is the centre of Ramallah. It felt like a more happy place than Jerusalem where a lot of people were unpolite.

Ramallah isn't ofcourse as clean and tidy as Jerusalem. It didn't feel like a dangerous place. Some people we spoke in Israel say otherwise.

We visited the Palestinian Broadcasting Corporation. The building was bombed by the Israeli army during the second intifada. On the picture I took from the back you can see how badly the building was damaged. But the journalists kept on working. They told us they don't repair it, because the Israeli army will destroy it again anyway.

While water was dripping from the ceiling, furniture and expensive material lay broken and scattered around the place, they were broadcasting their talk show.

This is a famous police man in Ramallah. He dances ;-)

Stars and Bucks!
