What can a little bottle of oil do?,.. (besides help you whip up a great dish in the kitchen) How about bringing together a staff of Arabs, Jews, Bedouins and Druze in harmony! huh?.. Yeah that’s right,.. Peace oil is produced in Northern Israel and is sponsored by the Charities Advisory Trust which encourages co-operation between communities. Its vision is that through economic co-operation and daily contacts, barriers will be broken down, and understanding and respect built.
“It’s extra virgin, great on salads and a lubricant for relationships in the Middle East.”
It is not produced in bulk and the olives are taken straight from the tree to the mill and pressed within hours of picking. This gives it a very pure and characteristic taste–perfect for salads and garnish. Profits from sales are used to support peace and reconciliation work in the Middle East. Finally,.. Peace and Oil can be used in the same sentence.

Oil for Peace in the Middle East
You probably thought the title of this entry was crazy–oil, peace, the Middle East?! Not so fast we’re not crazy–this oil, doesn’t come out the ground, it isn’t black, and it’s much more likely to be used in your kitchen…
