A hugely productive day visiting settlements east of Jerusalem: T’koa, Rosh Zurim and Bat Eyin.  Our visits were largely spontaneous.  Unrehearsed, honest, friendly and thoughful. We met two US transplants and a cheif of security.  We wandered into the libaray of one settlement where two men were studying Talmud.  A young boy, about 7, jumped into our car at the guarded entry gate of one settlement to help us find someone who lived there.  Tomorrow, back to the West Bank.
