		No decision has yet been made to remove the barrier on the eastern side of Qalqilyah, but a large opening will be cut into it, in a bid to give Palestinian residents greater freedom of movement.

		However, a short visit to the area between Ariel and Qalqilyah in the West Bank shows that by comparison, what the IDF has been doing in Gaza is mere child's play.
		According to IDF charts, the area of Qalqilyah - including territory inside the Tapuah Junction in the east to the Green Line in the west, and from Kedumim in the north to Beit Aryeh in the south - is the area in the territories most densely populated by Israelis, excluding the outskirts of Jerusalem.
		These are broader than mere topographic alterations and involve "biting" strategic positions out of Area A that is under full PA control, in case of total conflagration in the territories.

		On the eve of the war, the Palestinians lived humiliated in their prison, their roads open only to Jews, their sick and their expectant mothers doomed to suffering, their children to a long and arduous journey to school and their elderly to trudging through the mud.
		They were trying to reach their district town, Qalqilyah, on the other side of the wadi; without access to it, their life is unbearable.
		About two hours ago, the ambulance was called by a resident of Isla, one of the villages farther down the road from Azoun, to come for his mother, and only now has the ambulance from nearby Qalqilyah managed to reach the gate.

		Israel was to transfer Qalqiliyah and Jericho to Palestinian authority yesterday but the handover was temporarily shelved after the sides disagreed on control of ''wanted'' militants in the cities and Palestinians demanded Israel remove army roadblocks around the cities to be transferred.
		Following an agreement on Qalqilyah and Jericho, Israel and the PA are expected to engage in more talks regarding IDF withdrawals from the West Bank cities of Ramallah and Tul Karm.
