Are you trying to imply that people in Oregon have it worse than Palestinians? I don’t see the point in bringing this up here as if it’s at all comparable
i think the point is that its a level of insanity. Imagine 100 years ago people being told they can’t collect water that comes from the sky. They’d lose their damn minds at the audacity.
Hoarding of common resource is the more mild crimes; there is the thief of property and land from Indigenous groups in Western European diaspora, Latin America, and other countries to a lesser extent under the excuse that Indigenous groups lack “proper” documentation to prove their ownership.
Statement of fact. You can reach your own implications I suppose? It’s not so much about the people as it is the legislation— which is not unique to Israel.
I don’t know a lot about conditions in Oregon. I know that a rainwater ban in my area would be insulting but not really an inconvenience for many.
The same sort of legislation for Palestinians is a different story. Their water can be cut off at any time and their infrastructure is at risk of destruction.
Rainwater shouldn’t be controlled by any state, but for most of us it would be an inconvenience. For people in Gaza it puts lives at risk.
It’s unique to Israel because Israel is telling a Palestinian village they cannot collect rainwater. It’s not the Palestinian authorities prohibiting Palestinian civilians from doing it.
I know it’s a statement of fact. We are asking why you felt the need to bring that up in this specific thread. Intent matters in instances like this and your intentions are pretty suspect here.

it’s not just one village. they apparently destroy rainwater collecting infrastructure, routinely.
