The opening as it read in 2005
Nahaleen is a small village to the south west of Bethlehem in occupied Palestine . The population of the village is almost 6700.1The word Nahaleen is Arabic and refers to those who collect honey from bees.2Mustafa Safi, a graduate of the American University of Beirut , has much credit for the advancement of Nahaleen. He has helped bring water and electricity to the village in the seventies, while many other villages in Palestine still lacked these services. He also established a bus company that linked the village to major cities.3

Palestinian Authority municipality Nahalin , also spelled Nahhalin , Nahhaleen , or Nahaleen , ( ) is a Palestinian village located in the Bethlehem Governorate to the southwest of Bethlehem in the West Bank .The word nahaleen is Arabic for those who collect honey from bees.The village is located inside an enclave in the Gush Etzion settlement bloc, surrounded by the Israeli settlements of Gvaot , Rosh Tzurim , Neve Daniel and Betar Illit .After the Oslo Accords , Nahalin was classified as Area B, meaning that civil affairs have been under the control of the Palestinian National Authority and security matters under the control of the Israel Defense Forces .According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics , the town had a population of over 6,409 in mid-year 2006, of whom 35% are under the age of 18.Approximately 150 - 200 persons are registered with UNRWA as refugees of the 1948 war.Villagers carry a West Bank ID card.Since the beginning of the al-Aqsa Intifada , severe restrictions on movement have been placed on all residents.According to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), from the intifada's beginning in September 2000 until the road's November 2003 reopening with IDF checkpoint monitoring, the cluster of villages represented by Nahalin, Husan and Battir were totally closed off and the only access was on foot via the Husan/al-Khadr junction.In 2004, all roads but one were reopened, and residents can now move more freely.In November of that year, USAID supported the paving of that road.Some 90% of the population between the ages of 18 and 35 are unemployed.The natural growth of the village will become a problem in the future due to lack of living space.Nahalin will become entirely closed in by both the expanding settlements and the Israeli West Bank barrier , placing severe constraints on the movement of residents and their access to services outside the village.
