Israel has not provided them with water. Israel has confiscated their water. It's their water.

Israel is taking the vast majority of the water in the limited aquifer under the West Bank for Israel's use (and for the settlements), and it has forbade the Palestinians even from using wells that existed before the start of the occupation. And it has destroyed many others. It has placed rations on their use of water, while wasting large quantities of it on non-essential uses.

Israel is committing ethnic cleansing by depriving the Palestinians of the basic necessities of life... food, water, and shelter. Do you condemn this practice, Dave?

Nope. Yours is the vitriol. I'm just presenting the FACTS.
