Water is Israel’s number one national security problem. They don’t have any. Their aquifer is sucking salt. The Jordan is down to a trickle. And they are recycling grey water into the drinking water.
Three times they have invaded Lebanon to annex south Lebanon to the head waters of the sweet Litani. Three times they have been repulsed by Hezbollah. They were in negotiations with Turkey for a pipeline, but that fell through.
If you want a break down of the problem, Dr. Paul Craig Roberts is the one to interview.
Which is why they steal as much water from the occupied Palestinian territories as they can.Instead of working with their neighbors,and working on shared water issues they want it all.So will end up with none in the future.
Israel is becoming an abomination in the eyes of his God!
Fracking Israel is that still on?
Kind of like above-ground atomic testing back in the 1950’s when we irradiated ourselves.
Destroy ALL the remaining water with Fracking. Create a Frakenstein.
I recall a proposal (by Israeli leaders, of course) to build desalination plants for the Palestinians. Israel would pump water up to the West Bank while Israel pumped ground water down to itself from the West Bank. What chutzpah.
I love Palestinians. They’re so brave and bold and handsome. I wish I could go there and do something for them.
The problems in Novorossia pale in comparison to the problems of Palestine.The Palestinians stand totally alone in the face of Israeli terror in their land.The entire World ignores their suffering (minus some individual people,but not a single government),and has for generations.The Ukrainian fascists would love to create the same apartheid system for Russians in Donbass that the Israelis have in Palestine.But at least to some extent the people have the support of Russia standing in the way (more the Russian people than the Russian state.But still something).Compared to Palestine,South Africa’s native population didn’t suffer that horribly under apartheid.Palestine even more than Novorossia is the disgrace of the Western World (and that is saying something there).The difference,and tragedy of Novorossia is that unlike the Palestinian problem,that one could be fixed easily.Its the will to fix it that isn’t there.Something that frustrates me to no end.
Very true, Bob. Numerous South African fighters against Israel’s old friend and ally, apartheid South Africa, who visited the West Bank, asserted that the conditions under which the Palestinians are brutalised are far worse than those they suffered under Afrikaaner apartheid. And Israeli apartheid commenced in 1948, just like the Afrikaaner type, and is not just still extant today but is ever worsening, as the Israelis display their capacity for infinite sadism and boundless hypocrisy.
yes, the more I hear the news these days the more like Israel is …. Saudi Arabia and Turkey…both of these countries are Israel too.
But I wish so much for the Palestinians. And they’re so defiant…
But Bob…Hezbollah is with Palestine…but not completely in a military way…just politically I suppose.
“On how Netanyahu will sabotage the nuclear agreement between Iran and the US” by Nazanín Armanian:
http://blogs.publico.es/puntoyseguido/2905/de-como-netanyahu-saboteara-el-acuerdo-nuclear-entre-iran-y-eeuu/
(….) it is likely that in their battle, Netanyahu will go to the end and like a bull in a china shop with any movement hurting his country, himself and millions of people.
“The Israelis say to the 22 congressional Democrats visiting their country how bad they see the agreement on Iran’s nuclear weapons” by Al Kamen for The Washington Post:

(….) Given the ever-present possibility of fights between Republicans and Democrats to occur on these trips, they usually make these trips separately. But this time the group, which also included some spouses, agreed a day when they traveled together by bus to the border with Gaza and then dined together at the embassy.
It was learned that everyone was pretty good. Of course, it happens that they are still a bit new to the job.
The Middle East conflict “invited”itself to Locarno
“Do not give carte blanche to the Israeli apartheid”:
by Sergio Ferrari for Rebelión
http://www.rebelion.org/noticia.php?id=201969&titular=%93no-darle-carta-blanca-al-%3Ci%3Eapartheid%3C/i%3E-israel%ED%94-
Two hundred film personalities including Jean-Luc Godard, Ken Loach, Alain Tanner and Francis Reusser, criticized the collaboration of the Locarno Film Festival with the “Israeli Film Fund” government institution of the State of Israel.
(….)”We the undersigned, filmmakers and professionals from the film industry, we express our deep concern that the Locarno Film Festival chose to work with the” Israeli Fund of Film “and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, although Israel from several decades has not only continued but also intensified its policy of occupation, colonization and ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian people. “(….)
(….)The open letter also expressed surprise at the wrong time at the Locarno Film Festival accepts the official Israeli collaboration. “… Shortly after the slaughter perpetrated in Gaza in the summer of 2014, in which more than two thousand Palestinians, including five hundred children died. Moreover, the decision of Locarno is given at the time the most racist and right-wing government in Israel’s history is in power. “
“Tel Aviv at the Seine Beach”: by Ulyses Urriola for Rebelión
http://www.rebelion.org/noticia.php?id=202147&titular=tel-aviv-en-la-playa-del-sena-
With consternation we learned of a propaganda operation of the State of Israel, under the auspices of the City of Paris, crashing into the festivities of Paris Beach, privileged place for summer activities since 2002 whose essential principle is to give the most dispossessed a ‘summer’ space at the edges of the river Seine for 3 or 4 weeks.
The Mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, “socialist” government, was on tour in Tel Aviv in the month of May, where he contracted this “festive” commitment to invite a particular city like Tel Aviv, the political capital of Israel recognized worldwide, and under the perverse argument that tries to make us believe that Tel Aviv is a “progressive”, “festive” and “opposition to Netanyahou” worthy to participate in our capital with the city taxpayers´ money. Actually, this is again a bleaching on the crimes of an apartheid state that subjectes the Palestinian people to colonization, exclusion and extermination since 1948. The political nature of this “socialist” maneuver is unavoidable and demonstrates the unscrupulous complicity with an internationally repudiated regime by its systematic and ongoing human rights violations of the Palestinian people.
Moreover, when fully we remember that these days, a year ago, Gaza was bombed by Israel, killing more than 2200 people including 550 children were killed. Killer decisions, all were taken from Tel Aviv!(….)
(….)It is in this context that Mrs. Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris, aims to eliminate in an authoritarian way the consciousness of all French and Parisians who strongly reject complicity in Zionism and defend universal values forgotten by herself and her government. The realization of this “event”: T’es coincé à Paris? T’inquiète?, Tel Aviv debarqué chez toi ‘(You’re locked in Paris? Do not worry, Tel Aviv gets there) Is an indescribable embarrassment, even if you know what are the beaches of Tel Aviv, beaches for dogs, for homosexuals, for religious people taking turns for women and men … and with police surveillance like we are going to live today August 13 in Paris Beach. That is, the “cultural traffic” imposed on us by the City of Paris is also not convincing, far from it, is counterproductive.(….).
“SOS for water in the Palestinian Jewish conflict”: by Napoleón Bonaparte for Rebelión
http://www.rebelion.org/noticia.php?id=202149&titular=sos-por-el-agua-en-el-conflicto-judeo-palestino-
(….)The Arab-Israeli war of 1967 was caused by water. Israel had no water to survive and develop resources, however, the Palestinians, yes, they did. That is the real reason for the war. As a result, were occupied the Golan Heights from Syria, the West Bank and Sinai. As the latter territory has no water, it was returned to Egypt, while the other areas that have water resources will never be returned, while Israel’s water problem is not solved.
With his victory in the 1967 war, the Israeli army took control of the entire water system and can not make a single well without the authorization of the army.(….)
(….) International jurisdiction over the water says all water resources that are transboundary should be equitably shared between the two parties, in accordance with international law.
The main aquifer is from the Mountain and encompasses the Syrian territory of the Golan Heights, which is currently overexploited by Israel. The water in this aquifer is intended by 80% to meet the Jews, while 20% is for the Palestinians. In the Oslo accords of 1995, in its article 40, he said that the Palestinians were entitled to a higher consumption of water from the Mountain Aquifer. However, as we see none of this is being made by Israel and the international community is silent in a knowing way.
The aquifer of the Gaza Strip is the most exploited, producing 505 million m3, from which 88% goes to Israel and only 12% for Palestinians. The situation is dramatic because this aquifer, being very exploited and given the proximity of the Mediterranean Sea, makes the salt water into it, to this we must add that in the absence of treatment of sewage in Gaza, they end up in the aquifer, contaminating it. Consequence of this is that 90% of the water in Gaza is unfit for human consumption, which aggravates the situation of the population of the Strip.(….)
Israelis have been stealing water from Palestinians and Lebanese for decades. In fact, Israel invaded Lebanon in the 1980s to reach Litani River. Israel broke-up Sudan to steal water from Nile.
In February 2014, EU parliament president Martin Shultz, a rabid pro-Israel Jew, addressed Israeli Knesset. After assuring the paranoid MKs that EU will never allow boycott of the Zionist regime, he made a tiny ‘antisemite’ statement which made half of MKs walk-out of the chamber. Shultz said that Palestinians in the West Bank don’t have the same access to water as Israelis. Netanyahu said that Shultz, like many European suffers from selective hearing.
