How Israel created a water crisis for Palestinians | It's Complicated 

It is nice to see that Hamas leaders are billionaires living in luxury in Qatar.

​@@bloom4807 1.2 billion for 2.3 million people, how does that work? And remember Palestinian are under occupation/ colonized etc

​@@bloom4807Israel received 150 billion over 75 years from USA not including inflation gratis Israel should be defunded and have to pay it back

@@bloom4807still humming that tune while innocent civilians get slaughter

@@bloom4807 ah yes the famous tunnels that were supposed to be under the hospital that was bombed and turns out there wasn't any 🥸🥸

💯💯

Same! Really disgusting!!!

you are not alone- and to think if Hamas had not committed their brutal crimes we would not even be looking in that direction. Israel does what it wants with impunity like no other .... but appeals to the "civilised world" - Netanyahu the one who hates peace ...... so had enough of this farce

Exactly this.

Yes 💯

This is complicated.

you madea a comment about this on youtube. how activism of you

You are right. It s astonishing how do leaders of supposedly civilized Western countries do not condemn this inhumane situation

They are barbarians pretending to be civilized.

@@Madelro100 they don't care, it is all about money. Every politician use moment to secure a future for themselves

@@Madelro100 Hawaii history

As an atheist I agree😉

It's beyond disgusting honestly... and this is not a religious issue, but a visible presence of inhumanity...

What does race have to do with anything ?

@@benhardkurniawanpasaribu7018Millions have been fundraiser for Gaza by the Saudis alone, much less the rest of the world. Israel still only allows aid to come in by meager aid truck.

@@benhardkurniawanpasaribu7018 jog on !!!!

Maybe dont bite the hand that feeds you.

social media platforms silence these videos

@@Elbasilius israel didn't bite the hand, it swallowed both palistinian arms with no regret. Learn the history.

If Hamas didn't continually want to destroy Israel and spend money on building tunnels and buying weapons and agree to a 2 party state this problem would be solved. Stop blaming Israel. Hamas has chosen this for the Palestinians, not the Israelis.This is caused by Hamas who just regards Palestine as a launching pad for terrorism and does not care for the civilians. It has never invested in Palestinian infrastructure. Stop the usual lefty oppressor and oppressed rhetoric it so tired and old.

Guardian is always been doing it.

Palestinians invited all their plights.

@@Revenant74zealot

It's like someone coming into your house, claiming that they own your kitchen and all your sinks, then blaming you for getting mad. That sounds fair.🤔 @@Revenant74

100L a day??

So Ramallah gets 615 mm of rain per year and they can't direct any of it into reservoirs or cisterns or any water catchment system. They blame the fact they don't have water infrastructure on the Israelis which is disingenuous at best.

Hamas has plenty of water. They just wont share it with their civilians thats all.

Mind you it’s a war not just any fight.

@@itsjustlife42 where did that accusation come from. sources please, or else it's baseless

​@@rjgo5229 Do you honestly believe Hamas is not taking the water?

They should just move to Jordan - the Arab part of mandatory Palestine

You should just move

​​​@@davidcooks2379Trans-Jordan and Mandate of Palestine are different regions mate. Why would they go to some other lands leaving the home ? Just because the Israel were weak and got kicked out of Europe doesn't mean Palestinians are weak too..they will resist & defend their right to self determination.

@@mahmoodabbasi6120 " are different regions mate" They are literally waving the flag of Jordan mate. How are they different mate?

@@silverwolf6866 No bro, Palestinian Flag and Jordan flag are different Jordans flag has a white star in the Red triangle, Palestinian one doesn't

The USA dropped two atomic bombs on two populated cities,

Now that’s the true color of America since the beginning rings of the criminal

A strong and influential Israeli lobby in the elections, strategic interests in subjugating the Middle East with a terrorist state, Israeli influence within media institutions and the film industry. This is simply the case.

And the guardian?

And you think Iran, China, Russia and North Korea are somehow better?

Yea tell that to the super corrupt Palestinian authority no elections in 20 years I wonder why 😂

blood boiling

Nope

Nope

Likud's TERRIBLE. I TOTALLY agree.

@@benschaeffer8102 Likud was not there in 1967. But the water theft is decades old.

@@kogikashakunin4683 Oh yes, I know. I'll not say ANYTHING about Hamas' hijacking Foreign Aid $$$$ that WOULD have allievated Gaza's water problem then. Oooooops.......looks like I went there. 🤔

Yes, absolutely

Agree, Hamas billionaire leaders cannot provide water for Palestinians, yet thery are living in 5 start luxury hotels in Qatar

​@@kaizokud42palestinians donators always can provide it if israel doesn't forbid it

let Palestinians have their state with full rights on their resources they will manage their daily live as other human on planet doing so.

​@@Sniptoolbut they had gaza to themselves and hamas turned it into a terrorist base?

@@Sikasays they never had it ? Israel controls what goes in and out, Israel controls electricity and water. Israel literaly counted calories to limit Gaza food (2279 Calories per Person).

Hamas billionaire leaders cannot provide water for Palestinians, yet thery are living in 5 start luxury hotels in Qatar

Hamas has governed Gaza, it is its duty to provide water with Gaza, not Israeli

@@NNN-jx7fxComment literally makes no sense from a normal civilian standpoint. Water having access to you should NOT depend on who is governing you. It is the most basic human right you pinecone.

ANC and Hamas have turned their countries into the laughing stock of the third world!

Because it’s not

@@robertshriver8392oh it most certainly is. Read the definition of terrorism and you’re also reading the definition of a nation state. There is a reason that governments had to explicitly excluded themselves from the definition of terrorism, because they absolutely meet the definition of terrorism. The nation state is the greatest manufacturer of evil mankind has ever known.

Stop acting the victim

why? Is it because you think it's a lie?@@juliancollins6853

If they did not have double standards they would have no standards at all. We have laws about trading with non signatories of the nuclear non proliferation treaty who have nuclear weapons. But we give one country a pass, can't quite seem to figure out why, or why the media likes to ignore it.

And the sentence for throwing stones on heavily armed idf cowards is upto 20 year prison sentence. Even children 😱. Truly shocking.

Yeah because they have a victim mentality and would rather seethe and hate and anger against israelis then use the millions in aid they get to build and maintain their own infrastructure. It's not israel's repsonsibility.

@@BrodaPaul 20 yrs prison for throwing stones on colonists?

​@@mustafaalizzi879yes that is true

@@Rel1107 I heard that long time ago and these event proved the evil in zuonists

Indeed, if Hamas wasn't elected, there'd be no water shortage.

@@FirsToStrike Israel created Hamas to divide Palestinian leadership.

Including in the West Bank? @@FirsToStrike

​@@FirsToStrikeDo you purposely lie? Hamas is not in the West Bank.

@@chanimal66 If Hamas isn't in the Judea & Samaria area, then how did they perpetrate the Givat Shaul shooting? Obviously the only way they could get to west Jerusalem is by going from the West bank.

They can't tell the whole truth

I too discriminate against my vowed enemies.

APARTHEID

​@@FirsToStrike Your enemies? You mean the indigenous people you stole thier land?

They are pure evil.

Welcome, If you want war, you will get war. So much nonsense in one report.

Palestine can supply its own water. They get millions in aid and have all they need to build their own infrastructure.

@@honeyrose7663they have a right to their own water Israel is taking did you even watch the video or rush to the comments to criticise Palestinians

Did you - and the 4 people who ticked you up - ACTUALLY watch the 5 minute video or did you go deaf and blind over how the Israeli apartheid regime DOES NOT ALLOW Palestinians to dig for wells and break ups up sources that collect water. @@honeyrose7663

You mean because Israel is fighting back against a murderous terrorist regime?

Arabs should just move to the Arab part of the mandatory Palestine - it's called Jordan

@@davidcooks2379 absolutely right.

@@davidcooks2379Did you watch the Israeli interviews with leading politicians? They are mostly white? What are they doing here? Everyone here is brownish whitish with Turkish hints. How are most leading politicians white? They should move to other white countries

@@davidcooks2379in your dream!!

because much of Palestinian resources under Israeli ILLEGAL settlements

But Israelis also have no right to prevent anything to enter Gaza

You're right, you don't know what apartheid is

@@samweltz tell us how it isnt apartheid, cant wait to see you list out all the parroted talking points

But the question is: was Apartheid really that wrong? Because what is happening in Israel/Palestine is a lot like Apartheid, but the US government keeps saying it is OK, so... maybe the international anti-Apartheid movement was unfair 🤷‍♂

it's a lie!! Over 90% of the waters of the State of Israel are treated seawater from the Mediterranean Sea. Israel's water project was the "national carrier" that transported the water from the Kinneret to the rest of Israel!. The videos you show of the army are the destruction of pipes that the Palestinians connected to Israel's pipes by theft!

Why don't Jordan, Lebanon and Egypt take their Arab brothers? Is that an apartheid?

"but Khamas..." comments incoming in 3... 2... 1...

They call themselves the Palestinian Authority, they are not part of Israel so how is there apartheid

@@user-sz3vc9ue2g Israel occupies and controls all supplies and material, and water and electricity into both Gaza and the West Bank, with the PA propped up as puppets in the west bank. How dense can you be?

⁠​As a South African, I lived under an apartheid rule where people were denied basic rights just because a certain race felt they were “Gods chosen people” and that they were superior to everyone else in the country including the indigenous people to the land. Therefore as south africans we know what it’s like to live under these conditions while being oppressed and basically having our fates chosen by the government - the apartheid government of south africa controlled the movement, schools, homes and lives of non whites just as the israel government controls palestinians. The only difference is israel is committing a genocide trying to completely get rid of palestinians in israel - go look at the map of palestinians in palestine in 1948 vs 2023. South africans know that peaceful resistance is never taken seriously by a government who wants to take over your country therefore they resorted to militant resistance in order to break out of the apartheid state. Palestinians lived under israel’s apartheid occupation from 1948 (the same year South africa’s apartheid began) where israel demolished palestinian’s homes, controlled their movement, water, food and electricity, attacked and bombed more innocent civilians than hamas ever did every single year for 75 years before october the 7th. Why isn’t the hamas attack seen as resistance to israel’s attacks then? But israel’s tenfold response to hamas is justified because “they asked for it”? None of the previous israeli attacks which were just as harsh and killed even more people were ever made this big of a deal and most people don’t even know about it. In South Africa, the ANCs peaceful resistance against the apartheid state went unnoticed and only when they resisted more forcefully, then the apartheid state of South Africa became recognised internationally and eventually helped South Africa to become a democratic country where all citizens were given equal rights and access to basic necessities like education, food, jobs and medical care. People probably think this way because they’re so indoctrinated with American mainstream media which propagates israel as the victim and that they’re “defending themselves” by wiping out an entire nation since they’re obviously allies and their governments are blood, money and power hungry. People seriously need to educate themselves before thinking it’s about religions or that it’s a two sided war, when it’s literally a genocide happening in front of our eyes.

Can you give me examples of apartheid regim?

1. Gaza is not occupied 2. It is not apartheid when Arabs can hold any office. 3. You are talking garbage.

Hahaha how are the natives the colonial power in their own indigenous land? 😂

Palestine and other nations took over that land in year 70AD. You people got to ENJOY that land for almost 2000 years. In 1948 after almost 2000 years in exile - THE REAL OWNERS returned to their land, which they did not take by force - the UNITED NATIONS granted the people of Israel STATEHOOD. The UN also offered statehood to the Palestinians, BUT they DECLINED.

The reality of Hamas is not as the Western media portrays it. They are not as extremist as you imagine. How can you confront an enemy that has no morals like Israel?

they are indeed silly little choir boys compared to the systemic opression and destruction from the Israeli government

I'm not- the Guardian has taken this line for decades- perhaps you only just learned to read.

@@jimseltzer2002 😂

What about West Bank huh?

@@hassansardar3248 what about it?

@@warriorfb2010 their is no Hamas in West Bank. And what do you expect PLO to do when every thing is under isreals occupation. From water reserves to supply chain. Shamelessly providing water 24.7 to illegal colonial settlements while scarsing Palestinians from their own water.

You're right, clearly BOTH sides are in the wrong. When you hear one side of the story the answer always seems clear.

You're right- Israel, an apartheid state by definition, is the ONLY one in the wrong. Racism, Sexism is at it's core values and it's action.

​@@brandon3872Only thing is that one side has been above any law that existed.

one side is always winning@@brandon3872

The question is, who is controlling every aspect of Palestinians life

Apartheid. You are spouting untruths.

HILARIOUS

Now the world, and by the world I'm really referring to the world and not the Western countries, is tired of double standards and Western hypocrisy. It's positive because the world can see clearly how your countries treat those you deem uncivilized (Untermenschen). The problem is that we have a more extremist environment where no one believes no one and cares for nobody. How to amend such a world? I don't see any achievable solution because human nature is prone to horrible things when we think we have a moral authority. Unfortunately, we all failed as a species.

@@jimseltzer2002it is apartheid.

@@KDean22apartheid is hilarious to you?

And yet no one talks about mixing civilian infrastructure with military! They say Israel strikes.. no one talks why it had to strike !!

OK Hamas operates entirely outside any law. So they do need to be punished.

yeh, if any other government did this, that country would be sanctioned by the majority of the world quick smart! Instead, this one continues to get it's weapons that it uses to commit genocide, funded by the west. Makes a mockery of sanctions on Iran compared to what's happening here, doesn't it!
