Dear friends,<\/p>\n

Please excuse the commercial nature of this message. As many of you are long time subscribers to ePalestine, you are aware that I refrain from commercializing this list. However, this specific message has more to do with economic resistance to the Israeli occupation than it does marketing.<\/p>\n

The attached notice is announcing the launch of a new service being offered via my consulting firm: a Professional Arabic-English & English-Arabic Translation Service. The service has been in a soft launch mode since the start of 2008 and we are now pleased to make the service available to all today.<\/p>\n

Our translators are based in the Israeli-occupied territory (including the Gaza Strip) and the majority are women. Using our translation service will provide you with quality translations, as well as an opportunity to concretely contribute to sustaining Palestinian economic activity under extremely difficult conditions.<\/p>\n

Please feel free to contact me at aim.word.factory@gmail.com<\/a> if you have any questions and we look forward to serving your translation needs. If you don’t have a need (or even if you do) for such a service, please pass this on to someone or company you think may.<\/p>\n

Rgds,<\/p>\n
