Typical of the Israeli's.? Any attempt to improve the dire plight of the
Palestinians will be stopped by Israel.?As part of the ongoing ethnic
cleansing of Palestine, Israel has destroyed huge acreage of farms and
orchards.? Countless orchards of ancient olive trees have fallen to the
Israeli bulldozers.? My congratulations to Starhawk for trying to do the
right thing by teaching Permaculture to the Palestinians, but I am not
surprised her efforts were thwarted by the occupation forces of Israel.??

Palestinians are the descendents of people who have lived sustainably on the
land for thousands of years. their ancestors in the bronze age constructed
towns and cities with elaborate cistern systems and had well developed trade
in agricultural products from the large surpluses they were producing by the
early Bronze Age.? The Palestinians were master orchardists in a dry
climate.? The orange groves of Jaffa were famous in the Middle East.? In
fact, Israel stole much of this agricultural heritage in period between 1948
and 1949 when 750,000 Palestinians were ethnically cleansed from their
homeland in direct contravention of the U.N. agreement.

Anybody interested in learning more about what is happening in occupied
Palestine can start at www.gush-shalom.org. It is the leading Israeli peace
organization and they unflinchingly reveal the truth about ethnic cleansing
of Palestine.? There are links to many other organizations, including
Palestinians groups, that are fighting for the human rights of the
Palestinians.
