The pines were planted to conceal the remains of the villages that were destroyed during the Nakba, to conceal war crimes. Pine forests was a Zionist project that backfired. This short documentary explains why.

"The perception of #fire as a universal threat to society and #ecosystems has led to a widespread perception that fire should be suppressed at all costs, regardless of the type of fire. This misleading belief that fire is a controllable artefact, rather than a natural process intrinsic to ecosystem dynamics, has been enhanced by media misinformation and biased debates."
