Saturday, January 2 2010 Planting olive trees in Safa
In the morning a group of 20 people, Ta’ayush activists and Anarchists Against the Wall, went to plant olive trees in Safa, an activity which in many cases the Palestinians are prevented from carrying out because of settler violence or army orders.

Together with the residents of Beit Jala and Rabbis for Human Rights we went to plant in Wadi Humus, between Beit Jala and Gilo.

The seedlings were passed under the fence into the restricted area, and only the Israeli activists and a handful of Palestinians with permits planted the seedlings for the group.
Saturday, March 12 2005 Tree planting in Falame The unconcealed goal of Sharon is to annex the territory between the green line and the fence establishing a new border for Israel. It is conceivable that his appetite is larger, but with the current methods it is a large part. The fence and the limitations imposed by the military on passage of farmers and equipment pose a threat to the agriculture and the land may become desolate. The Palestinians show admirable vigorousness and resourcefulness in clinging to their land and cultivating it, in spite of all the difficulties. As ...
