without water

Without water, we die. That simple

For years Israel has been confiscating the water on the West Bank and deep drilling it down to Israel. If you look at a map, you will see that the West Bank is higher than Israel proper and that by deep drilling it, Israel effectively steals the water that belongs to the West Bank.

Since 1967 Israel has a passed a series of laws, all of which are illegal according to International law, justifying their stealth by making water a “security issue”
In 1968, they seized complete authority over all water in the Occupied Territories
1n 1967, Palestinians were prohibited from developing new water infrastructures
In 1967, Israel usurped total control over the waters of the Jordan and barred Palestinians use of that water despite their rights to it under a riparian treaty.

In 1975 they imposed pumping quotas on the Palestinians despite the fact that those quotas did not allow the Palestinians to meet their basic needs

in 1995 Oslo II allows the Israelis the right to postpone the water issue to “Final Status negotiations, which enables them to:

continue to confiscate water to the point where 85% of the water of the West Bank is pumped to supply the settlements and Israel proper
Israelis consume a hefty five times as much water as Palestinians, whose water consumption is under the minimum recommended by the World Health Organization while Israelis water lawns and swim in pools
build settlements with laws and pools over the villages below them whose water (and electricity) they control and cut off at a whim
another unstated reason for the Wall is that it confiscates the majority of the Eastern Aquifer, the water source of the West Bank
and despite all of the above Israel somehow found it necessary to destroy $15 million worth of water sewers, pipes and networks in their invasions in the West Bank between 2000 and 2005
