As attacks subside, Jerusalem tries to return to normal

JERUSALEM (AP) — One of Jerusalem's most popular Palestinian hummus joints, Lina, used to serve about 100 Israeli diners a day — the majority of its clientele. But after the outbreak of Israeli-Palestinian violence last fall, the place saw business drop to about three or four Israeli diners a day, and even many Palestinians abandoned the landmark Old City establishment.
"It's been hard," said Ghaleb Zahadeh, Lina's manager. "It's getting better a little bit." But not by much — over the last two weeks, he said he served about 10 Israeli customers a day, all of them longtime regulars.
