Also, it seems you feel that if there is a territorial dispute, it is okay for one group to crap in another group's water.
In the 1990s an agreement between Israel and the Palestinians concerning the fresh water rights and its distribution has been reached. Back then, the ratio was based on the population. That ratio has changed to the disadvantage of the Palestinians.
So, yes. I believe the heat in the dispute could be resolved if both groups but especially the Palestinians stopped growing in number.
And I don't know about that specific case with the pooping in the fresh water supply. What I know is that you cannot trust such information because it is heavily influenced by propaganda.
Generally, I would say a good part - not all - of todays conflict is the fault of the Palestinians. They lost one war after the other but still believe they can win. That's the definition of stupid. I'd try something else.
Four more points that make Palestinian politics dubious to me:
- Iran, a theocrazy, has big influence on the Palestinians
- They really don't like elections (esp. in Gaza)
- Occasionally some of them tell the truth, like even if they find a political agreement, they cannot sign a deal because of the religious nature of their "struggle"
- Gaza could be as rich as Katar. But they chose war over wealth and drag their people into it. How low.
Well, that's it. Overall I find that conflict as boring as it could be and people who invest themselves in it are imho useful idiots to either side. Best thing is: Ignore it. That's the biggest punishment of them all.
PS: I don't think Israel is committing a genocide on the Palestinians. And if they do, Gaza is the lousiest concentration camp ever. And why? Auschwitz had a birth rate of zero. The one in Gaza is five.
They had elections in Gaza. Israel and the US made them. They voted for Hammas. Because the other Israeli option was FATAH. The West told them their election was bullshit. Palestinians fault.
You believe this is battle over two sides. When anyone who does any simple research knows this is one population under occupation by another. They call it the occupied territories.
Gaza is more of an open-air prison. The place isn't a country. It's a surrounded region of Israel that up until a decade ago had Israeli settlers in it. Gaza has no right to the air space above it, or the water on it's coast. Funny how you think they could be "Katar".
What deals should they sign? Since each deal the Israelis propose, they violate.
"Ignore it". Cut of US funding for Israel and halt all wars fought on it's behalf and people would definitely ignore it more.
