 and Prime Minister Ehud Olmert (R).<br />\r\n++++++++++++=<br />\r\nBush seems to love to shake hands with all around him. He shook hands with every girl in the choir and insisted on posing for a group photograph with both Peres and Olmert among the girls. Later Bush signed the Yad Vashem guest book with the shortest inscription ever written, "God Bless Israel." He signed his name but did not even date the visit. Then, on leaving to his limo, he shook hand with two Israeli police man who happened to be standing to the side. They seemed a bit surprised to be offered the hand of the leader of the free world...... ',700,700);)

 and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas hold hands as they leave the podiums at the conclusion of their joint press conference on 10 January 2008 in the \'Muqata,\' or Palestinian Authority headquarters, in the West Bank town of Ramallah. Bush stressed that the two countries, Israel and the Palestinians must work together to solve the tough problems to bring about a peace deal, and said he is on a one-year deadline.

, where clergy and pilgrims line the roof of the ancient church, on 06 January 2008 in the West Bank town of Bethlehem.<br />\r\n+++++++++++++++<br />\r\nThe glasses and the gun caught my eye as I hurried towards the church following the procession and being pushed by other security people surrounding the Greek Patriarch. I had a flash mounted on the camera, turned it on and did a quick exposure on the sky and shot with fill-flash. Palestinian police will be out in force, and have rounded up many Hamas suporters in the West Bank,ahead of George Bush\'s visit in a few days. Also, the al-Qaeda threat to kill Bush when he visits will certainly increase security and decrease photo-opportunities for all except the "traveling press."',700,700);)

Israel is planning to build some 700 new housing units here, which has been criticized by the US and many Arab states, who consider the community a West Bank settlement, while Palestinians say it will damage the post-Annapolis peace talks.
