A Palestinian protester runs for cover during clashes at the Qalandiya checkpoint near the West Bank city of Ramallah October 9, 2009. Palestinian leaders on Thursday called for a one-day general strike and warned of more street protests over Jerusalem, where clashes at the flashpoint al-Aqsa mosque two weeks ago cranked up tensions in the disputed city. Israel is playing down Palestinian warnings that its security tactics risk a new Palestinian uprising. REUTERS/Yannis Behrakis (WEST BANK POLITICS CONFLICT)
