    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.
