Israeli building slowdown ends; settlers celebrate (AP)

September 26th, 2010

Jewish settlers participate in a cornerstone laying ceremony for a daycare center at the West Bank Jewish settlement of Kiryat Netafim, Sunday, Sept. 26, 2010. With a midnight deadline looming, Israel's prime minister on Sunday called on West Bank settlers to 'show restraint' after the end of a government-ordered construction slowdown, attempting to lower tensions with the Palestinians and prevent a breakdown in newly re-launched Mideast talks. (AP Photo/Ariel Schalit)AP - Jewish settlers released balloons and broke ground on a kindergarten in celebration Sunday as a 10-month construction slowdown expired, while U.S. and Israeli leaders tried to figure out how to keep Palestinians from walking out of peace talks over the end of the restrictions.
