Hey, what's up...?

We'll talk...

Call Ibrahim.

His phone is off.

- Abu usa been here?

- Not yet. We've been waiting.

The Palestinian Authority

politicos have it good, huh?

How long do we have to wait?

- Stop complaining.

- Leave him alone.

Shut up, enough!

Abu usa.

Are you al-Aqsa Brigades,

or a bunch of thugs?!

Why don't you return our calls?

Call to make an appointment,

then we'll talk.

Now we have to make

appointments, Abu usa?

You have secretaries, bodyguards.

You're such a big shot

in the Palestinian Authority,

we cant even talk?

Call us back. One call...

We're sick of chasing you.

Don't you see what's going on?

The Americans, the Europeans,

the Egyptians, are all here.

Ramallah became like the UN, Badawi!

The Americans promised you SUVs,

so you forgot about us?

- What did you say?

- Abu usa,

you owe us money,

for 12 men.

We had agreements!

You're talking about agreements?

What about your last

attack in Jerusalem?

You're working for Hamas now?

Haven't you heard?

Didn't your friend Ibrahim tell you that

he started getting money from Hamas?

I guess he doesn't trust

you anymore, Badawi.

F***ing Jews...

Just came to harass his family.

Wait for my signal.

Cowards. Bastards.

Let's shoot anyway.

When I shoot,

I wanna hit something.

After what they did

to Ibrahim's house...

Put your gun down.

Tyson!

Lucky it was only two Jeeps,

the Israelis are crazy these days.

What can you do...

I'll send someone to fix this for you.

God willing, tomorrow morning.

Where the hell were you?

Abu Kaes said you left work early.

I had to beg him to hire you.

There was nothing to do.

I was sweeping all day.

You can't just leave work like that!

He'd play video games

all day if you let him.

But I work.

Why do you say I don't?

Get inside! Go!

Open up!

I told you not to lock this door!

Between you and me,

I'm very worried.

After the King George attack,

everythings changed.

I haven't slept since.

Tell Ibrahim to come

to my jail in Jericho.

Just for a month or two,

until things cool down.

Where is he now?

Hiding in some basement, or a cave,

alone like a dog...

You think the Israelis

won't find him there too?

He'll only be safe with me.

We'll treat him like a king.

Hello, Badawi.

So... I have to run into you

fifty times a day, Badawi...

Abu Ibrahim, I have to go.

Call if you need anything.

Allah be with you.

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

- Did you talk to Ibrahim?

- He's not talking to anyone right now.

But he's fine. Don't worry.

I'll send someone

to fix the wall.

What did Abu usa want?

Ibrahim in his jail?

Yes. What do you think?

That Abu usa...

he cant wait for the
