Israel cuts water supplies to West Bank during Ramadan

[Stand With Israel. Crush Hamas]

Hoax. There was a burst water main that cut off water temporarily. COGAT's civil administration team went to work repairing it and it's back up and running. The time it was down was long enough to cook up this story and spread it around the world where it'll be used to motivate the killing of Jews for months to come.

Do you guys ever realize that the reason people automatically believe Israel would do something like this is because Israel has proven before that they'll do things such as this?

No, it's because the exterminationists have proven for several thousand years that they will come up with any lie they can in order to wipe every last Jew off this planet, and they know that too many uninformed people will believe it. But nice victim blaming.

Oh wow, in less than three full lines, you

1) Unironically use "exterminationist" in reference to any sort of criticism of the Israeli state.
2) Believe that any criticism of the Israeli state is a lie fabricated to wipe the Jews off the face of the planet.
3) Perpetuated a ridiculous notion that to criticize Israel, one must be uninformed, where the reality is that the more informed you are, the more likely you are to criticize Israeli actions.
4) Insinuated that the Jews are always the victim no matter what and can never do any wrong.

How much are they paying you for this?

We're not talking about criticizing Israel, we're talking about blood-libeling Israel with fake stories in order to incite people against them, a popular act with deadly consequences for us for a very long time. Before there was an Israel in the modern era, they did it against our diaspora population, but the result is always the same.

You've proven in the past that you don't take the threat of anti-semitism very seriously, so none of this surprises me.

Whatever helps you sleep at night and helps you feed your biases

Also, Ernest, "provide more jobs to palestinians"? You mean like what SodaStream did? BDS still protested against it. We can't win against you hypocrites.

Until the Palestinian Authority cleanses itself of the corruption and extremism that has always plagued it then we can talk about who can do what.

The nonsense that comes out of the PA didn't happen because "muh Israel mean" but, in fact, because it has always been run by crazies or corrupt sleazes.

I'm not a BDSer, so don't engage in the simplistic thinking of lumping all critics of Israel together just so you can attack the crazy criticism and ignore the stuff that isn't crazy. Indeed, let's please just stick to this one point, how to provide, if at all possible, the West Bank with a water supply that could not be subjected to such hoaxes in the future.

Even if the system collapsed after being turned over to the PA because of corruption, it still would advance Israel interests to eliminate this one area from dispute. Indeed, the only hope I see for any progress being made in the Israeli-Palestinian dispute is thru small issues such as this.since there's no will on any part to strike a grand bargain acceptable to both sides right now.

Some decent points here, but recent fiascos in Gaza proved that even when Israel is nowhere to be found, and the Palestinians are granted autonomy, certain corners of the media will still dutifully report a flash flood during the rainy season as "Israel opens dam to flood Gaza". That one didn't quite spread as far and wide as this, though.

Essentially, while I think it might be a good idea for Israel to begin turning over certain Arab-run areas of the West Bank to PA control in areas like utilities (although I'm not sure they wouldn't have to eventually step back in to avoid a humanitarian crisis, given graft and Hamas), it wouldn't solve the core issue of outlets like the Independent spreading lies like this worldwide.
