Whistleblower

• Tuesday 10 June 2008 - Palestinians need water

Under United Nations Resolution 242, Israel was to dismantle the Jewish settlements from the West Bank.

According to the 1993 Oslo Accord, the Palestinians were told they’d have a viable state in Gaza West Bank, but not a single Jewish settlement was dismantled under Oslo. In fact, quite the contrary - the settlers went from 250,000 to 380,000 in the West Bank,

But here's the really startling part - 5,000 Jewish settlers in the Jordan Valley consume 75% of the water, leaving the remainder for 2 million Palestinians to live on. Kind of gives you some insight into the resentments in that part of the world.

The statistics are from  "Sleeping with the Devil"
