One school? No further comment needed.

The nutritious datebars eaten by children at schools in the West Bank used to be shipped in from Egypt or even further afield. Now they are now being produced much closer to where they are needed: in Gaza. The result is that the local economy is being supported and kids in the West Bank are eating biscuits produced by fellow Palestinians. The first convoy of datebars recently made the crossing from Gaza.

Ah, Bless him. Too tired to read exactly what I posted and save himself the trouble of typing the exact same out again.

But he did apparently miss my response, so here goes:-

Sounds good! Support for the local economy, though please note ""support for fellow Palestinians"". Not really export, is it?

I should have added, very little support, for a very local economy.
