RE: WHO IS OPPOSING PEACE IN GAZA ??

I agree, all people and organisations follow trends, its not hard to predict once you have studied them. An attack on America has been on the way since Castro and the missile crisis. Im sure American intelligence expected something like 911 years before it happened.

Is that hate?

RE: Gaza's Natural Gas Supplies

You said it brother we all have roots and we all try to protect the ground those roots grow in. The only question left is weather we are flowers or weeds.

On 15 August 1967, another Military Order was issued placing all authority over water matters, exclusively, in the hands of a military officer. Military Order 1015 issued on 27 July 1982 and was amended by Military Order 1039 on 5 December 1982 determined the nature and quantity of crops Palestinians may plant, especially, in irrigated parts. It also demanded that Palestinian farmers reduce their crops to lessen water consumption8 . Similarly, in the Gaza Strip, two Military Orders were issued declaring water resources governmental and ordering Palestinians to seek permission from the military governor for any project involving water.

These Military Orders enabled Israeli occupation authorities absolute control over Palestinian water resources. These authorities have often refused to grant any permission to dig artesian wells or to build any water networks. Dr. Paul Korch wrote in Middle Right: “Since the occupation of the Palestinian territories by Israel the military authorities did not grant a permit to a single village to dig any wells. Between 1967 and 1983 only seven wells were allowed and those were for domestic consumption”. Additionally, Israeli authorities prohibit restoration of old wells. Owners of wells that existed prior to June 1967 were forced to place meters to determine exact amounts of water drawn from their wells.

The Palestinian Planing Center reported that Israeli Water Commission exercised direct and tight control over Palestinian water resources since 1967. Two Israeli companies, Tahal was responsible for regulating water policies while Mekorot, was entrusted with digging artesian wells and sales of water in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

RE: Gaza's Natural Gas Supplies

I apologise for upseting you Conrad. You are right my chemistry is sorely lacking. Just for the record I am NOT a Hamas supported, live and let live Conrad and again I apologise for any upset I caused you. If you are anti Hamas I can understand that and respect your views. In no way do I support the rocket attacks in Israel nor do I believe this conflict is as simple as ownership of natural gas. Natural gas is a valuable resource but Palestine has more valuable resources such as water. Humans can live without natural gas.

West Bank Water Usage
Of the water available from West Bank aquifers, Israel uses 73%, West Bank Palestinians use 17%, and illegal Jewish settlers use 10%.
While 10-14% of Palestine’s GDP is agricultural, 90% of them must rely on rain-fed farming methods. Israel’s agriculture is only 3% of their GDP, but Israel irrigates more than 50% of its land.
Three million West Bank Palestinians use only 250 million cubic meters per year (83 cubic meters per Palestinian per year) while six million Israelis enjoy the use of 1,954 million cubic meters (333 cubic meters per Israeli per year), which means that each Israeli consumes as much water as four Palestinians. Israeli settlers are allocated 1,450 cubic meters of water per person per year.
Israel consumes the vast majority of the water from the Jordan River despite only 3% of the river falling within its pre-1967 borders. Israel now diverts one quarter of its total water consumption through its National Water Carrier from the Jordan River, whereas Palestinians have no access to it whatsoever due to Israeli closures.
Israeli Military Orders to Control Water Resources

Israeli strategies aimed to negate the very presence of the Palestinian people. Major Israeli designs intended to coerce the Palestinians to vacate the land. Practices, such as land confiscation, house demolition and even killings, enabled Israel tighter control over Palestinian land including water its most valuable resource.

Immediately after the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip in 1967, Israeli military authorities issued several Military Orders (MO) to ensure tight control over water resources. On 17 June 1967, Military Order 92 was issued. It covered the following:

a-All water resources in Gaza and the West Bank are considered government property;
b-All permits for artesian wells are cancelled;
c-All information or data regarding water resources is strictly classified7.

Hello members

Thanks everyone,
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!

Hello members

Hi Im new here. I hope to meet you all in the forums.

RE: Gaza's Natural Gas Supplies

Hello Conrad,
Im afraid you information is incorrect. You are correct when you say it is stored under water, this reduces the risk of fire as it can spontaneously combusts at 32 degrees in air but if it is ignited it will continue to burn under water as water contains oxygen. Incase theres any doubt Ive included my source of information and another article readers might find interesting.
“M34 White phosphorus hand grenade.
This is an inert shell that, if active, would be filled with 15 ounces of white phosphorus and a small charge that distributes it over a 35 meter radius when set off. Anyone in that area without protection would be severely burned and/or poisoned, and flammable material would likely end up in flames.

next we have
W.P.(c)-White Phosphorus. This is a very nasty round that is very effective against enemy units. It is like napalm and covers almost everything. It cannot be put out, even by submerging it in water. To remove a burning patch from flesh it has to be scraped off.”

I came across a web site set up by Israeli students. The object of this website is to encourage Israeli supporters to flood websites such as CS, facebook, bebo, discussion forums and news media comment sections with pro-Israeli messages. They also have a "QassamCount" which is "an application on social media sites Facebook and Twitter that automatically updates a user's status every time a rocket hits Israel. All of that user's friends will see the status update, which lists the location of the attack and the number of rockets fired."

The websie in question is

And here is an article from the Jerusalem Post:

Very clever move as I think a lot of people are getting fed up with mainstream media and are turning more and more to the internet for their news. So they are flooding internet sites with pro-Israeli propaganda. So if CS gets a sudden influx of pro-Israeli supporters they could possible have come from this site.
