New anti-Israel slander: "Palestinians are literally dying of thirst"

This article was originally published in June in "Foreign Policy in Focus" but has recently been republished in other places, including The Ecologist:


Literally dying of thirst? Funny, I have not heard about a single Palestinian Arab dying of thirst! I must have missed all the articles.

But when I searched for them, I found some interesting photos of how scarce water is in the West Bank:

Like recent photos on the Facebook page of the Palestine Water Sports School:


The Dolphin swim club is still open for business:


So are the Al Waha pools in Tulkarem:


There are a whole lot more.

Don't they know, as they swim in their Olympic-sized pools, that their fellow Palestinians are literally dying of thirst only a few miles away????

The rest of the article is also filled with the usual lies. I have previously discussed how Palestinians politicize the water issue and the truth behind the water libels.

I don't know if The Ecologist is a respected website or not, but after this fiasco, their reputation should be pretty bad.
