"Visiting two of more than 500 roadblocks Israel operates in the West Bank, officials of the Peace Now group questioned the efficacy of many of the checkpoints that hamper Palestinians' movement on roads that do not lead into Israel." Peace Now officials that Israel should continue to oppress Palestinians, but that the oppression should be reduced a bit (not good for the "soul" of the soldiers, according to Peace Now). Specifically, Peace Now only asked for the removal of 43 checkpoints. (thanks Sellam)
