![](javascript:doblowup('New Playground','/images/uploaded/up_j38vb6.jpg','Israeli children who used to live in Jewish settlements in the Gaza Strip play skip rope using a piece of thick rubber construction tubing as they play nearby their new homes, known as \'cara-villas\', or double mobile homes, in the new community called "Nitsanim Dunes" north of Ashkelon on August 26, 2005. Hundreds of Jewish settlers who moved voluntarily from their homes in the Gaza Strip settlements moved into these temporary homes in the last few days after leaving their settlements. Other settlerss who were evicted from their homes and did not sign up in advance for these cara-villas were taken to hotels throughout Israel for temporary housing.',700,700);)
, or army, was in charge of everything and set some very strict rules for being in or out of settlements, in or out of shuttle busses for photo and news coverage and stipulated that journalists without permission found in settlements after a certain date would have their credentials taken. We took this very seriously, but on the first day of forced evacuation the army began handing out their special\'Press\' red caps to all the journalists on the streets of Neve Dekalim, so the entire system fell apart immediately and everyone \'in\' was \'in\' and the Pool system set in place with only 2 still cameras in every settlement quickly became a joke and there were at least 40 still cameras at every settlement. This all came as no real surprise to the photographers who cover this story, but it was a lopside policy where those breaking the rules were rewarded with unilateral coverage while those sticking to the rules had to wait in lines and sign up for \'shuttle\' army buses to take you to the story of the day. These buses sometimes took the entire night to arrive at the scene and by that time the photographers would collapse of fatigue and heat and be beat all day. I hope the press write about the coverage - the army can take the criticism and should, and hopefully learn from it all. The received incredible coverage and some very moving scenes were played out to both the local and international audience - on live TV, almost live photos via sat-modems and ADSL lines and huge staff among the main waire services to keep pictures rolling through the day. it of course was a bit too much - like in this instance, but it made for good coverage, inclusive, in-depth and quite remarkable. But it was exhausting.',700,700);)

 and a religious Jew embrace and cry as the religious man is evacuated from the synagogue in the Gaza Strip settlement of Gadid and the policeman waits to put him on the bus leaving the Gaza Strip. The press has witnessed hundreds of scenes such as these during the \'disengagement\' and it is impossible not to get emotionally involved in this story as people are taken from their homes.',700,700);)

, or Temple Mount, that leads to the al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem\'s Old City on Friday, August 5, 2005. Next to him are a stack of Arabic newspapers prominently featuring photographs of the passenger bus in which four Israeli Arabs, two Christians and two Moslems, were killed last night by a Jewish extremist wearing an Israeli army uniform. Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon called the man a "bloodthirsty Jewish terrorist."',700,700);)
