Pistachio Wars Film Screening - 3/13

Pistachio Wars Film Screening - 3/13

What do drought, oil waste, extinct fish, and the IOF have in common? Come watch Pistachio Wars to find out!

The Wonderful Company is a Los Angeles–based holding company owned by billionaire couple Stewart and Lynda Resnick, Zionists who have funneled millions of dollars through their foundation to organizations tied to the Israeli military and occupation apparatus. Unsurprisingly, Zionist lobby groups are enthusiastic backers of sanctions, tariffs, and hardline policies against Iran, which allow the Resnicks to protect and expand their global pistachio market share and ensure no domestic competition.

Wonderful grows most of its products in drought-prone California, including water-intensive nuts like pistachios and almonds that require massive water use, with devastating environmental consequences. In just 50 years, the water pumping out of the San Francisco Bay Delta to feed the California agricultural industry caused a collapse in the local fish population. The Resnicks own 57% of the rights to the Kern Water Bank, a large underground reservoir in the Los Angeles area, and are the largest cultivated land owners in the US.

Join this film screening of Pistachio Wars from Watermelon Pictures to learn more and find out what you can do about it.

Asheville For Palestine is a local boycott campaign modeled after the national No Appetite for Apartheid Campaign. In line with the tactics of the global Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement and global Apartheid Free Zones. https://avlforpalestine.com
