Israel's siege scars West Bank
Palestinians say occupation excessive; Israelis say it derails suicide attacks
How this transcription was made
The scan is the three-line headline and the two-line summary; there is no body text on it to transcribe.
Context added by this archive
The headline names the siege as Israel’s and the verb it gives it is scars, which is what a wound does afterwards. Underneath, the two sides are set out in one line each. The Palestinian line is an opinion about a degree — the occupation is excessive, which concedes the thing and argues about the amount. The Israeli line is a function.
