Lemon Tree
who hardly lives off her lemons.
What about a husband?
I knew him well actually,
but he died years ago.
But what will keep a terrorist
from entering the grove,
gathering intelligence,
throwing a grenade, whatever.
Before we respond,
he'll be asleep in Nablus.
Gilad, security fences, watch towers,
sensors, soldiers, the Secret Service.
Not enough? What else can we do?
Do not turn the page
until you are instructed to do so.
Easy, Gilad, easy.
Listen, I don't take the decisions here,
but you see how easy it is.
Everything ok?
Can't complain, Mrs. Navon.
Why do they always give me
the worst jobs?
Stop whining.
Give her the letter and let's go.
I'm starving.
Move it!
Open the door!
Come here! Quick!
Give this letter to Mrs. Salma Zidane.
It's urgent and important. Got it?
Hello, Abu Camal.
Hello, Um Nasser.
How are your wife and kids?
Fine. They kiss your hand.
I came because I received this letter.
You know I can't read Hebrew.
And I have a feeling it's important.
It's from the Central Region Commander,
the son of a bitch,
informing you
they will cut down your lemon grove,
because the trees pose a threat
to the safety
of the Defense Minister
"An immediate and absolute
military necessity."
What's wrong, Um Nasser?
Why are you crying?
Do you know how much land they
confiscated to build prisons for us?
And how many houses they demolished?
It says here you are
eligible for compensation.
The lsraelis are so generous...
Thank you.
But we don't take their money.
You understand that, right?
You're listening to DC Radio 99.9 FM,
in the nation's capital.
The only station that brings you
jazz to sooth your ears.
It's 1 1 :
