In the West Bank of occupied Palestine, workers queue up at Israeli military checkpoints on their commutes to work. These workers are made to walk in single file through humiliating metal structures that are set up to restrict and monitor their movement. Many Palestinians crossing here are forced to work for their occupiers in territory governed by the state of Israel. The Real News Network was on the ground to speak these workers as they went through two check points in the early hours of the morning.

Stripeed off their lands, property, homes, resources and dignity. Soulless occupiers
we are on the side of humanity (Palestine)
Palestinians have to accept and live in Peace and recognized and accept the adopted Resolution 181 In 1947 by the United Nations. If they will respect the Jewish people and learn to coexist we would not have any conflicts. #STOPJEWISHHATE
WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE PAKISTAN PEOPLE WHY THEY DON'T GET THE HELP ONTHER MUSLIM PEOPLE I AM NOT SURE PUT THE S
Amazing that he thinks 62 is old. Glad I live in the United States.
OMG it's a concentration camp. I love you but shame on you
This is something one would expect to see in the Hollywood movies from the Nazi OCCUPATION of Europe. I guess the world has not lived up to the "Never Again" promise.
What a shame on us all. We only watch and talk. No action taken by any country. Why ? Cause of greed ,money ,to flex power and evil 1 side politics. Where's the AID like present counties are subject ed to war..Billions up Billions of $ ..O for Palestine
Defund Israel
Free Palestine ðŸ™ðŸ»ðŸ™ðŸ»ðŸ™ðŸ»
If an Israeli wants to visit Egypt or Jordan, he must go through checkpoints as well, so where is the apartheid?
This method stopped the suicide bombings. Can’t argue with success
My heart breaks for the people of Palestine. Free Palestine! Also please look up the movie called 5 broken cameras by a Palestinian man and it’s about what his family is going through living in an occupied country. It’s very eye opening. The same people have occupied our government here in the United States and they are destroying our country on purpose and they make war in the American peoples names while our media lies to the people but people are waking up.
Grossly one-sided story. Sentiments,emotions and lies won't give the Palestinians a state. The land bongs to the Jews period. Nothing anyone can do about this fact.
It shows that the corrupt Palestinian Authority despite receiving billions from the Muslim world USA and Europe cannot provide jobs for its people..
What Israel is doing to the Palestinians is atrocious & a crime.
They should kneel and kiss the Israeli's toes for letting such terrorists and losers work for them ao they won't starve
forgiveness
Free Palestine
Oh my God😢
This is a one sided report. The pals have not recognized Israel since its inception. Wanting to destroy the only Jewish state in 2,000 years. Terrorist incursions since 1948. Not abiding by the Oslo accords by sending in suicide bombers (which created the security wall). Refusing any deal to create a Palestinian state. The 1991 proposal included East Jerusalem as the capital. Almost destroying Jordan. Destroying Lebanon in the 1970s. And that is only the beginning.
That is why Israel created stringent security procedures.
why no choice for them ? Certainly not obliged to earn triple the wages at home. The problem is that they are inclined to have too many children. Its difficult now in this economic clilmate to feed them and her in doors. They know too well that there are "waiting in the wings" Chinese & South Asian reliable no troublesome worders most eager to work for the pesky Jews. No sign they zre developing their own parts of WB under OSLO accord. Even after these years it looks like the middle ages
