About twenty people demonstrated on Saturday 3rd July against Ahava, who sell cosmetics manufactured on the illegally occupied West Bank settlement of Mitzpe Shalem, on the shore of the Dead Sea.
The protest was held outside Ahava’s only UK shop, on Monmoth Street, Covent Garden for just over two hours.
Protesters chanted “Dead Sea Mud, Palestinian Blood” and other
slogans.
There were also about ten Zionist counter-demonstrators, who appear to believe that anything Israel does can be justified as ‘defending itself’.
A reporter from Israeli TV Channel 10 interviewed protesters.
