The truth behind the 'Palestinian' water supplies

It's been nearly two weeks since Dumkopf Schulz came to the Knesset and repeated as fact 'Palestinian' lies about Israel stealing 'Palestinian' water. Since then, there has been very little authoritative written about the water situation. Now, there is a report out that explains why the 'Palestinians' have less water than Israelis.

Water shortages in the Palestinian Authority are the result of Palestinian policies that deliberately waste water and destroy the regional water ecology. The Palestinians refuse to develop their own significant underground water resources, build a seawater desalination plant, fix massive leakage from their municipal water pipes,build sewage treatment plants, irrigate land with treated sewage effluents or modern water-saving devices,or bill their own citizens for consumer water usage, leading to enormous waste. At the same time, they drill illegally into Israel's water resources, and send their sewage flowing into the valleys and streams of central Israel. In short, the Palestinian Authority is using water as a weapon against the State of Israel. It is not interested in practical solutions to solve the Palestinian people's water shortages,but rather perpetuation of the shortages and the besmirching of Israel.

There's much more. Read the whole thing.
