Carmel Agrexco Valentines Action 7 Feb 2009 p1/4 [inminds.co.uk]

Activists successfully close Carmel Agrexcos main depot the Saturday before valentines, the busiest period for the sale of flowers. Carmel Agrexco, owned by the Israeli government, is responsible for importing 60-70% of all produce grown on stolen Palestinian land in the illegal Israeli settlements (flowers constitute 17% of this).

Film is in 4 parts, total duration is 38min

Title of film is "For Anwar". Anwar Il Ibrim was a Palestinian farmer who was shot dead two weeks before this demo by the Israeli army in his parsely field whilst picking his harvest - a single bullet through the neck. His mother explained that Anwar was her only son, he had gone to work the field that day to raise money to buy medicine for his ailing father who is paralysed.
