The policies of Israeli barbarity affects us all, especially when they deliberately either take over land/olive groves belonging to Palestinians for years or, as recent Orthodox settlers have done, chopped down age old trees with glee - obscene. Olive Oil Times cannot condone this behaviour.
Given the disgraceful occupation of Palestinian land and the destruction of their olive trees by thugs, this harvest should be of little, if any interest at all.
These are Italians and Catholic... no need to inject politics into olive oil. Just enjoy a story about trees exceeding 2 millennia still producing oil. Enjoy the romance and save your anger for something more righteous.
