Palestinian Jerusalem resident Adnan Taha destroys his own home with a fellow Palestinian in Arab east Jerusalem on September 11, 2011, in implementation of an Israeli court order which ruled that the house was built without a municipality permit. Many Palestinians end up demolishing their homes themselves to avoid the high cost of paying Israeli government bulldozer bills against orders to go to prison. Photo by Mahfouz Abu Turk
