"Israel is fanatical about preserving its aquifers,"
Israel is equally fanatical about acquiring territory for Jewish settlements, to the extent of driving thousands of people onto a poisoned (the description of their own health department) land to get it.
Bedouins have lived on similar land, and worse for over a decade without Israel lifting a finger to change that situation.
Far from treating the toxic nature of Bedouin living conditions the Israeli regime has used toxic sprays on Bedouin crops and livestock in order to drive off a people from land that they have occupied for centuries.
The very act of forcibly moving an ethnic group off their land to make room for another people is racist driven fascism in its purest (probably an inappropriate word to describe some of this planet's worst atrocities) form; the methods being employed to carry this out, chemical warfare is ethnic cleansing, no less.
You are fully aware of all this, just as you are fully aware of the toxic nature of the proposed forcible re-settlement, which is why you refuse to offer an alternative explanation by answering the list of definitions which make the site toxic, even though some of those descriptions are based on the Israeli's description of the site.
Those conditions, in their own words, will continue to exist for years, even decades - the site you are defending will remain toxic for the foreseeable future.
Had it not been for world-wide condemnation and the threat of prosecution for war crimes, the Bedouins would have been forcibly moved onto this site long ago, almost certainly without any preparatory work being carried out, or even a promise to close it, leaving the Bedouins to live, fall ill, suffer and die because of their toxic surroundings.
THAT IS YOUR NON-ISSUE
I have no doubt you will continue to ignore all this and refuse to refute these facts with evidence of your own, but once again, thanks for the opportunity to show what a nasty, fanatical wee jobbie you are.
I see you are continuing to defend the "democratic" nature of a regime that you have described as an oppressive human rights abuser - is this your definition of "democracy" or have you taken another trip down that good ol' road to Damascus?
"Do you deny it or not?"
Where did I ever state it Keith - a quick cut 'n paste should do the trick? You appear to have ben caught out lying about this one too.
You have my position on Egypt's motives, which, once again, you have refused to respond to with evidence, or even opinion of your own concerning the democratic forces statement of why the tunnels were flooded.
You seem to have re-entered into your Dalek-like repetition mode on this one.
