Action: Picking Olives.

Date: This coming Saturday, November 9.

Details: On the Gush answering machine, 03-5221732.

The olive picking season is coming to an end. Next Saturday is the last day. On that day, Gush Shalom and representatives of other peace organizations are planning the mobilization of more than a handfull of volunteers for aiding the villages that have suffered the most from settlers' harassment and who have explicitly asked for our help.

We shall help the villagers to pick the olives that have remained on the trees and can still be saved!

We shall defend them by our very presence from the settlers!

We shall celebrate the end of the harvest, in the course of which Israeli and international peace activists have done their best to help saving the fruit!

It is a great experience - an action that is at the same time a practical help, a political demonstration and a symbolic act of Israeli-Palestinian friendship. Those who have already taken part, please make another effort! Those who have not - you have an experience waiting for you!

COME AND TAKE PART!
