A protest works its way through town.

Burning tires are a familiar sign of protest.

As conflict in the rest of the country continues to flare up (Israeli rocket attacks in Gaza, tanks and helicopters brought into Nablus), the signs of protest and solidarity in town are limited to a parade through town and an occasional burning tire - the now-familiar signs of Palestinian protest.

No school today, which gave us a chance to view the life beyond the village from our roof. No one is leaving Zababdeh, and many are watching the world from their roofs, too.
