00:11:35We have reached the end of our segment from Jordan. We will meet you again
00:11:38soon, God willing. Viewers, welcome
00:11:43Israeli newspapers with the expert on Israeli
00:11:47affairs, colleague Faiq Abbas. Good
00:11:49morning. Good morning,
00:11:53Amor,
00:12:05Farah, and good morning to the dear
00:12:08viewers.
00:12:10The urgent issue of the judge at the International Criminal Court,
00:12:14the South African judge
00:12:18who won the Nobel Peace Prize, is causing concern
00:12:21in Israel, and Israel is attacking
00:12:26the committee, of course,
00:12:29for awarding the Nobel Peace Prize
00:12:32to this judge.
00:12:35The reason, they claim in Israel, is
00:12:40for Israel that she received
00:12:43the award. But practically, there are those who warn
00:12:47that this person
00:12:49the award is a warning
00:12:53to Israel. Yedioth
00:12:56Ahronoth's main headline, with a picture
00:12:59of the judge, is "Nobel Prize
00:13:02for Hypocrisy." This is what
00:13:06the report, as you can see in the picture.
00:13:09The report that
00:13:11Pillay
00:13:13submitted to the Security Council after October
00:13:177th mentioned
00:13:20277 times that Israel
00:13:23is carrying out genocide. Hamas was not
00:13:27mentioned even once, not a single word
00:13:31of terrorism. The South African legal
00:13:34expert receives the Nobel Peace
00:13:36Prize for one reason,
00:13:40which is her hatred
00:13:42for Israel. This committee
00:13:46that decides who receives this award,
00:13:49Israel has never attacked this committee before, but
00:13:53this time,
00:13:56because of her hatred
00:13:59for Israel, this is a moment of degradation
00:14:03for the international community, and not just
00:14:07for Israel.
00:14:10Goebbels, Yani writes
00:14:13under Rimmini in the main headline. Goebbels was
00:14:17the propaganda minister, today's information
00:14:20minister, as they called him during Nazi
00:14:23Germany with Hitler.
00:14:26And his slogan was, "Lie a lie until
00:14:29you yourself believe it." Who
00:14:33is lying today? Among all the world
00:14:36leaders, it is known
00:14:40who. But this is not, of course.
00:14:44And Rimmini adds that Pillay
00:14:47received the Nobel for hatred
00:14:50and that she submitted a report in
00:14:54March under the title
00:14:57"Beyond Human Endurance,"
00:15:01human endurance after
00:15:04sexual violence since
00:15:08October 7th against Palestinian
00:15:11prisoners. And regarding the news
00:15:16the Nobel,
00:15:19the award at our expense, at Israel's
00:15:22expense." And Goebbels
00:15:26is applauding now from hell. This
00:15:29is how the Israeli Foreign Ministry responded
00:15:33to this award, to this award
00:15:38for Pillay, the human rights activist from South
00:15:40Africa, who held
00:15:43the position of former UN
00:15:45High Commissioner
00:15:47for Human Rights
00:15:50at the UN, and who accused
00:15:52Israel
00:15:56repeatedly of committing
00:15:59genocide against the Palestinian
00:16:02people. The Israeli Foreign
00:16:06Ministry said that awarding Pillay
00:16:09the prize
00:16:12is not a recognition of justice, but
00:16:15a weapon aimed at legitimizing
00:16:18hatred for Israel.
00:16:21Trump, for his part, attacked, according to Yedioth
00:16:24Ahronoth, the awarding of the prize to the legal scholar from South
00:16:28Africa. He wrote on
00:16:30his page, Truth,
00:16:34of course, that this woman received
00:16:38the award instead of him, instead of
00:16:41Trump, and no one knows anything
00:16:45about her except for her
00:16:48hatred of Israel. He adopted the
00:16:52Israeli narrative. I returned 146
00:16:55hostages,
00:16:59hostages. He is talking about Israelis
00:17:02and others in the world. And it was
00:17:05supposed to add,
00:17:09the award. Pillay,
00:17:13of course,
00:17:14received
00:17:20the award during a legal conference
00:17:23she was attending, and the attendees applauded her
00:17:27for a long time. She said,
00:17:30sarcastically, "If you had applauded more, I
00:17:33would have shared the award with Trump."
00:17:40And Yedioth Ahronoth writes about Pillay's statements,
00:17:43as they appeared in
00:17:472015: "Israel is carrying out genocide
00:17:51in an attempt to exterminate the Palestinian
00:17:54people in Gaza."
00:17:582014: "Israel committed
00:18:01war crimes, including sexual
00:18:04violence against Palestinian
00:18:07prisoners."
00:18:092022:
00:18:12"The root of the problem is the continuation
00:18:16of the occupation, which must be
00:18:20ended."
00:18:23the war on Gaza, Israeli shelling
00:18:27led to the killing of women
00:18:30and children who
00:18:33searched or sought
00:18:38from Israeli shelling.
00:18:41Yedidia Stern, a writer in the newspaper
00:18:44Ahronoth, writes today
00:18:47about her receiving
00:18:50the Nobel Prize under the title "Strategic
00:18:54Warning." He says:
00:18:56The award of the prize
00:19:00to Pillay of course proves that
00:19:04this is what the world thinks about us,
00:19:07Israelis. Israel is at
00:19:10risk of slipping into international isolation,
00:19:13and everyone in Israel must unite
00:19:19decline. Israel today
00:19:22stands at the bottom of a
00:19:25slope. It must expect
00:19:29economic defeat, political
00:19:32defeat, and after Trump's
00:19:36term ends, also
00:19:39security defeat.
00:19:42And another news story about the Iranian threat and the Houthi
00:19:46attack. A worrying
00:19:48report for Israel. The Islamic
00:19:52Republic succeeded in re
00:19:55manufacturing ballistic missiles, and now
00:19:59Iran
00:20:01is trying to
00:20:04quo and send
00:20:08messages that it will continue
00:20:11negotiations with the United States.
00:20:15Bloomberg News Agency: Iran
00:20:18is renewing its military capabilities
00:20:21and producing missiles
00:20:24around the clock. And President
00:20:28Trump is considering how
00:20:30he will act before the midterm elections.
00:20:34And Tehran of course
00:20:40to threaten with its power
00:20:43and its strategic goals
00:20:46that have not been exploited yet.
00:20:50The cartoon in Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper
00:20:53today, a very
00:20:56nice cartoon, and
00:20:59the cartoon is about the demonstration that took place,
00:21:03or the anniversary
00:21:06of October 7th, organized by the families
00:21:08of the killed and detained. Here,
00:21:12Netanyahu emerges from the sewage
00:21:15with his group of ministers around him.
00:21:19"It's over," is written here about the anniversary
00:21:22of October 7th.
00:21:25It's over, meaning everything
00:21:29is fine now.
00:21:32Netanyahu in the sewage, that's how the cartoonist sees
00:21:36him.
00:21:38Moving on to Maariv newspaper. Maariv
00:21:41newspaper wonders if it is expected
00:21:45to bomb Iran before the Israeli
00:21:48elections. Netanyahu does not deny
00:21:51that this possibility
00:21:54of a military operation is mainly aimed
00:21:57at postponing the elections.
00:22:01Sources in Israel: This possibility is not
00:22:04on the table now.
00:22:06And according
00:22:09to several sources, writes Pinkas
00:22:12Spitz, that the American administration
00:22:16wants Israel to first
00:22:20bomb Iran, and the United
00:22:23States will join it
00:22:26afterwards. And
00:22:29Zemir, the former Chief of Staff of the Israeli
00:22:32Army, said that such an attack
00:22:36would lead to the cancellation of elections
00:22:40in Israel. He clearly
00:22:44and explicitly stated
00:22:46that Iran should not be bombed
00:22:50before the elections
00:22:53because that would have
00:22:56a political impact on Israel and the cancellation
00:23:01least their postponement, and this is what
00:23:04Benjamin Netanyahu wants.
00:23:07A ballistic missile at Riyadh International Airport,
00:23:10and dozens of wounded.
00:23:14Dozens of injuries. Maariv wrote three
00:23:18dead, but all news agencies indicate
00:23:21that there are 12
00:23:27morning that among the dead were an American
00:23:31and a Palestinian from the West
00:23:33Bank.
00:23:36And the harsh reactions in
00:23:39Israel regarding this year's Nobel Prize
00:23:43are that it is a prize for blood libel
00:23:46and power for the lobby. I don't want to repeat
00:23:50the same thing, the same quotes from the Foreign Ministry,
00:23:56talk, and Israel's representative to the United Nations.
00:24:00It all boils down
00:24:02to the same issue. And another news item in Maariv,
00:24:06you noticed, in Yedioth Ahronoth and Maariv, there are no attacks
00:24:09by settlers. Maariv has a very trivial
00:24:12piece and the power
00:24:16of the pro-Palestine lobby.
00:24:20Demonstrations against Israel in
00:24:23dozens of countries around
00:24:27anniversary of October 7th.
00:24:30And the demonstrations were in central cities
00:24:33and capitals like
00:24:36Rome, London, and Sydney.
00:24:39Hundreds of thousands
00:24:42every country demanded
00:24:45an end to the genocide against the Palestinian
00:24:49people in
00:24:52Gaza. And news from India
00:24:56about the loud demonstrations there against
00:24:59Prime Minister Modi,
00:25:01who is known to be a friend of Netanyahu and a friend
00:25:04of Israel.
00:25:07And under the title "A Political
00:25:10Purge," the protest
00:25:13India after the removal of 130
00:25:17million names from the list.
00:25:24And of course, the cartoon in Maariv
00:25:27newspaper today about
00:25:30the Minister of Transportation and what is happening with transportation,
00:25:34as there are traffic jams and road accidents.
00:25:37And in the air, as
00:25:41drawing, and the Fly
00:25:44Dubai plane, all this, and the minister is not
00:25:48concerned.
00:25:51And moving on to Haaretz newspaper. As usual,
00:25:54its headlines differ, and its main
00:25:57headline, which Maariv ignored,
00:26:00Haaretz chose
00:26:03it to be its main headline: "Violence
00:26:05against Palestinians
00:26:08is increasing disturbingly
00:26:12during the olive harvest season."
00:26:15Documentation of more than 100 attacks
00:26:18yesterday. And according
00:26:21to the Palestinian Red Crescent,
00:26:2412 farmers were injured
00:26:27and transferred to hospitals.
00:26:30In addition
00:26:33to that, last week,
00:26:37dozens of they write settlers,
00:26:41besieged a house
00:26:47the Wadi Al-Rahim area in
00:26:50Hebron, and the soldiers who
00:26:55the family
00:26:56allow
00:26:59these terrorists
00:27:03to attack or prevent the homeowners from
00:27:07leaving it. Even if they want
00:27:09to leave, they coordinate
00:27:13security,
00:27:16and they threaten and assault family
00:27:20members, and the soldiers just watch
00:27:22them. And documentation
00:27:26of a soldier in the Birzeit area during
00:27:29the olive harvest says
00:27:32to the Israeli volunteers who
00:27:35came to help, "This is a Jewish
00:27:38state, and they have the right," meaning these
00:27:41terrorists, "to everything before
00:27:45the Arabs." And the Nobel Peace
00:27:50the front page, but it differs completely. They
00:27:54quoted what the Foreign Ministry said, but
00:27:58they gave a comprehensive report about
00:28:01this personality, the internationally
00:28:04renowned legal scholar.
00:28:07And they did not use the word
00:28:10"Goebbels" or "hatred of Israel,"
00:28:13but they published the Israeli
00:28:17Foreign Ministry's reaction.
00:28:19But
00:28:21of course, she was a judge.
00:28:25Today in the International Court in The Hague
00:28:29and she was the head of the committee that accused
00:28:33Israel of war crimes. Of course,
00:28:36the Ministry of Foreign Affairs described
00:28:39her as Goebbels
00:28:43applauding her now while he is
00:28:46in hell. But,
00:28:49and of course, the United States imposed sanctions
00:28:52on the International Criminal Court,
00:28:56but this is not published,
00:28:59by the way, but all countries.
00:29:02European countries rejected
00:29:05American sanctions outright
00:29:09and these countries affirmed
00:29:12that they would support
00:29:15the existence of the International Criminal Court. But
00:29:18Gideon Levy responds
00:29:21to the statements of the Israeli
00:29:24Foreign Ministry and asks in the title
00:29:27of his article, who is Goebbels
00:29:29applauding in hell? He quotes
00:29:32the Foreign Minister that Goebbels
00:29:36is applauding the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.
00:29:39If he is applauding, then
00:29:43he is applauding Israel's
00:29:45crimes.
00:29:48That is, he is applauding Israel's crimes,
00:29:51and the editorial of the newspaper
00:29:55is about torture centers in Israel.
00:29:59The article begins with Hiba,
00:30:0338 years old, mother of
00:30:06West Bank, was convicted twice
00:30:08of entering Israel without a permit in
00:30:12order to support her
00:30:15five children and was arrested in Damon prison.
00:30:19During five months, she was subjected
00:30:22to torture, starvation, and assault by
00:30:25the jailers, by beating her and pulling her hair
00:30:29and exposing her
00:30:31to electric shocks and throwing
00:30:34bombs inside
00:30:38reality is known, but
00:30:43not care
00:30:45about that.
00:30:47Haaretz adds, when Israel kidnapped
00:30:50the Nazi
00:30:52Eichmann, meaning they brought him and tried him in
00:30:56Israel, and he was the only one sentenced to death in
00:30:59Israel. No one thought
00:31:03to hurt or beat him during
00:31:07his detention. But in Netanyahu's government
00:31:10and Ben Gvir, everything is allowed
00:31:12regarding Palestinians. Thank you
00:31:15for watching and I will see you tomorrow morning.
00:31:19Thank you to colleague Fayez Abbas for all these
00:31:22details and clarifications. A short break and we will continue with you.
00:34:40Welcome back, dear viewers. Today we will talk
00:34:43about the loss of
00:34:46the olive season in Palestine due to settler attacks
00:34:49and low production. In the 2026
00:34:53season, estimates from the Palestinian Ministry of Agriculture
00:34:56indicate the possibility of producing about
00:34:5921,000 tons of olive oil if
00:35:04to access all their lands and harvest the crop. But
00:35:08today, we are talking about access restrictions
00:35:11and attacks that may lead to the loss
00:35:14of more than a quarter of the expected production. That's true, Farah.
00:35:18When we talk about the olive season, the olive season for
00:35:21farmers, for Palestinians in general, it is
00:35:24a primary source of livelihood and also an economic
00:35:27pillar, both in terms of the wide range of
00:35:30activities that take place during
00:35:32the season of harvesting olives,
00:35:36and also, this season is supposed to be a compensatory season
00:35:39for farmers and an increase in their income, but the continuous attacks
00:35:45army on farmers, on trees, and even the theft
00:35:52in the studio Professor Fayyad Fayyad, consultant to the International
00:35:56Olive Council and representative of Palestine in Spain. Good morning and welcome.
00:36:00Good morning to all of you and our dear farmers, and happy
00:36:03new year. This day is supposed
00:36:07to be the start of the mills' work, but unfortunately, the mills have
00:36:10been working for more than two weeks in most areas.
00:36:14Yes, Professor Fayyad, initial estimates
00:36:18indicate the possibility of producing about 21,000
00:36:21tons of olive oil. Is this number still realistic
00:36:24after the attacks and restrictions on access,
00:36:28the destruction of trees, their burning, and many of the practices
00:36:31carried out by the occupation and settlers? Thank
00:36:34you for hosting me and thank you for
00:36:38this specific topic. Of course, the Ministry of
00:36:41Agriculture, with all its departments
00:36:45that this season we will have 21,500
00:36:48tons or 21,000 tons. Of course, you mentioned
00:36:51in the introduction that if we are able to access all
00:36:55our lands, but we are in a year
00:37:02where we could not reach them because these lands
00:37:05are supposed to have their farmers keen to
00:37:08get permits behind the wall and in
00:37:12year might be exceptional, even more so than the
00:37:16128,000 dunums that their owners were
00:37:22العام اسرائيل طلعت ايضا
00:37:26will not be implemented: that farmers are forbidden
00:37:30from accessing government lands. Government lands are a broad
00:37:33category that includes some lands in Area
00:37:37A, B, and C, not limited to
00:37:39Area C2.
00:37:42year, we have a new phenomenon,
00:37:46which is settler attacks and crop
00:37:48theft. Previously, in previous
00:37:51years, they used
00:37:55farmers, steal
00:37:57crops from farmers, and steal
00:38:01year, it has developed because
00:38:04now the Israeli mentality, the Finance
00:38:07Minister, has addressed Israeli youth, saying that this
00:38:11land is your land, the land of your ancestors, and these
00:38:14olives were planted by your ancestors. So all these lands
00:38:18in the West Bank are yours, and you can harvest
00:38:22them in any way you see fit. This statement
00:38:25is very dangerous, so now
00:38:27settlers have no restrictions on them,
00:38:32army, unfortunately, and it is in coordination, I expect, with
00:38:36Israel, with the policy, with all of that, in order to push
00:38:39us to a stage where
00:38:42either we resort to violence with them, which is what
00:38:45we do not want, because we are the weak point in this
00:38:49regard, or we leave
00:38:53the land, and both are unacceptable to us,
00:38:56because for us, olives are not just an economy,
00:39:00and not just that 10,000 families
00:39:04olives, and not just that we have a national income
00:39:08of 150 to 180 million
00:39:11dollars, nothing more. Our identity is Palestinian, our olives
00:39:15are our olives. 25
00:39:18occupations have passed in Palestine, and this 26th
00:39:21occupation will disappear, God willing. That's right, we are talking
00:39:25about the importance of the olive tree for Palestinians. Well, when
00:39:29we talk about uprooting olive trees, the loss
00:39:32exceeds the harvest season we are talking about. The Ministry
00:39:36of Agriculture documented that more than 26,000 olive
00:39:40trees were uprooted during the first half of the current year. How are
00:39:43the economic losses of a productive tree that is
00:39:46uprooted and burned calculated? And how much time does
00:39:50a Palestinian farmer need to replace this tree and plant
00:39:55This number you mentioned, I think, is a small
00:39:59number. The reality is that in September, last month,
00:40:03we are talking about the first half of the year. Yes, the first half, that's
00:40:06right. Yes, I mean that the number is small because
00:40:10should we include Gaza or not? If we include Gaza, it is small. No,
00:40:14we are talking about the West Bank. Yes, your words are correct. We have
00:40:17approximately from the day of the occupation
00:40:20in 2003, meaning 2023,
00:40:24until now, we have huge numbers.
00:40:36A dirham in one week in Arraba and Ya'bad, considering
00:40:40that ancient trees were uprooted and ancient trees can
00:40:43be planted in another area, and
00:40:46then it would be better. But they did
00:40:49not allow the owners of the land to reach these olive trees. Second,
00:40:55tree. Its value cannot be estimated for a tree that is 200 years
00:40:59old or 500
00:41:01years old. I mean, they are currently in the
00:41:05normal market, in the normal market, if someone wants to
00:41:07build a house and wants to uproot olive trees,
00:41:11the law does not allow it except by pledging
00:41:14to plant them in another area. Of course,
00:41:18planting them for two years returns them to their previous state,
00:41:21and their value is estimated in thousands of dinars, not
00:41:25that the settlers steal old olive trees and plant
00:41:28them in their settlements, so that these are
00:41:31their ancestors who planted them. Yes, if we talk
00:41:35about early harvesting and its relation to quality,
00:41:37some farmers resort to
00:41:42losing the crop or being prevented later from accessing their
00:41:45lands. So what does the farmer lose when he harvests
00:41:49the crop early? Here we will talk from two
00:41:52angles. If his land is subject to theft
00:41:56and there is a
00:41:59we tell him to trust God, for necessities allow
00:42:02what is forbidden. But if he is not forced, then
00:42:06we have a problem because early harvesting has two
00:42:09disadvantages. The first disadvantage is that the
00:42:13oil is not ripe. Second, the amount
00:42:16of oil, which we call the liquidity
00:42:19ratio, is low, and it might be
00:42:23- I'll give you an example - currently, the active
00:42:26mills have been working for over 15 days. When they
00:42:30first started, the liquidity ratio was
00:42:3312, 13, 15, and then it rose to 16, 17. Our
00:42:37liquidity ratio in Palestine, in general, is
00:42:4023%. When we say 23%, we mean that
00:42:44if someone got 17, they didn't lose 6%,
00:42:47they lost 6 divided
00:42:51by 23, which is a very high percentage. So
00:42:54they lost a quarter of their season or half
00:42:58of their season. This is one of the losses. Second,
00:43:01when we press the olives
00:43:04go to the mill, in the mill, we have
00:43:08two main parts: a mixer and a turbine. These
00:43:12are essential for the olives, for the
00:43:15unripe seeds. They need
00:43:18different treatment inside the mill than ripe olives in
00:43:22terms of mixing time. So this means that we will
00:43:26have a very high residue in the pomace,
00:43:29meaning that we have unripe oil. Second,
00:43:33a low liquidity ratio, and also,
00:43:36the third thing that happens in the mill is that
00:43:40there is a lot of waste in the pomace because
00:43:44quickly. That's true, and the pressing process needs
00:43:47more mixing. So if we talk about the amount
00:43:51of support available to farmers, especially
00:43:55since many farmers lose their crops and have them stolen by
00:43:58settlers, and trees are destroyed, as we said,
00:44:02in huge numbers, are there compensation mechanisms
00:44:06for farmers or rehabilitation programs so that in
00:44:10the coming seasons, their production will be somewhat
00:44:13compensatory? The support is
00:44:16continuous, but it is limited
00:44:18and small. We live in an economic crisis in general
00:44:22as a country, as a government, as
00:44:27projects that come from abroad may
00:44:30not be targeted at olives to the same degree. Yes, that's
00:44:34right. The ministry, for example, says, and the Minister of Agriculture
00:44:37announced, that for every olive tree that is uprooted,
00:44:41they will give them a three-year-old tree in its place. This
00:44:45is excellent, but for a three-year-old tree
00:44:47to be equivalent to a 200-year-old tree
00:44:52a simple matter. There is support, but this
00:44:55support does not compensate for the damage
00:44:58inflicted on farmers. Yes, Professor Fayyad,
00:45:01the most important thing that concerns citizens today
00:45:04is the price of a liter of olive oil. So
00:45:08what will determine the price? Is there a price that
00:45:11you, as the Olive Council, can set?
00:45:15Previously, when there was olive oil, we used
00:45:18to coordinate with consumer protection and all
00:45:21other parties to create what we
00:45:24call an index, a comprehensive index. But
00:45:27currently, there is nothing. Currently, the season has not
00:45:31started yet. The season officially starts
00:45:34in four days, on the 15th of the month. Therefore,
00:45:38what is currently being traded and the prices are astronomical
00:45:42or high prices or not high prices are rumors
00:45:45that have no basis in reality. Currently, olive
00:45:49oil is sold at the mills in the north,
00:45:52which are operating, for 35 shekels per liter and sold
00:45:58shekels. So the figures being circulated in the market
00:46:02are not reflected in reality. However, the season has
00:46:05just begun. I think this year, my expectations
00:46:09as an expert and a mill owner,
00:46:14be competitive at the beginning of the season, when
00:46:1816 companies are competing to be the first to
00:46:21reach the Gulf states. But after the 4,000 tons
00:46:25that traders need are gone, prices will
00:46:28drop back to what they were in
00:46:31previous years, provided that there
00:46:34is enough supply. Second, we have a lot
00:46:39the market. Large oil were
00:46:43imported last year, but they were unable
00:46:46to market 100% of it,
00:46:49and we also received oil
00:46:52illegally, even though the customs authorities,
00:46:56the regulatory bodies, and the Ministry of Agriculture are all
00:47:00doing their duty and working day and night.
00:47:02But our borders are open with the enemy,
00:47:06so in some governorates, the settlements are
00:47:09integrated with the cities, so it is impossible to control
00:47:13what is smuggled. This is a message to citizens: when
00:47:16you want to buy olive oil, you must go to
00:47:20Palestinian mills to buy
00:47:24and there is no need for us to buy
00:47:27imported oils from abroad, and the
00:47:30prices, as you said, will be affordable for
00:47:33everyone after the beginning of the season. I
00:47:37guarantee you that in November, prices will
00:47:40be affordable for everyone. By the end
00:47:43of November, prices will be similar to previous
00:47:46years, or possibly even lower. Thank you for
00:47:50your presence with us and thank you for all
00:47:53this valuable information. But
00:47:56we can give some advice. Today is the day
00:48:00the mills open. We, the mill owners, have
00:48:03all due respect for them. They are all experts
00:48:06and know more than engineers. They are excellent. But we have
00:48:10a habit of people
00:48:13Shisha has become widespread in mills now.
00:48:17Smoke affects the entry of trucks to
00:48:21empty the oil or extract the oil for us.
00:48:24When it comes to fuel, we have
00:48:27electric forklifts that enter, but those that
00:48:30run on diesel mean that some
00:48:34of their parts mix with the oil. So
00:48:38to maintain the quality of
00:48:40the oil, we have an
00:48:44to generation, which is that when it's someone's turn
00:48:48at the mill, they bring a loaf of bread
00:48:51and put it next to the separator so that
00:48:55people can come and put the bread
00:48:59under the separator and eat fresh oil.
00:49:02Of course, this is a custom that we have inherited
00:49:06from generation to generation, but when we put
00:49:09the bread under the separator and the
00:49:12oil comes down, crumbs from the bread
00:49:15mix with the oil, and this can cause
00:49:19the oil to spoil
00:49:23and it's important. Thank you for being with us and
00:49:26thank you for all this valuable advice and information to
00:49:30Professor Fayyad Fayyad, consultant to the International Olive Council
00:49:33and representative of Palestine
