Some years ago... an Israeli minister banned the Palestinians from water drilling.
A far-right Israeli Cabinet minister had ordered a stop... as such activity would jeopardise the agricultural fortunes of the Israelies.
This minister (with a small 'm') considered it their right and privelege to grow crops for export, and thereby wealth creation.
With a total disregard for the Palestinians, who needed water for survival!
May the people of Gaza, the rightful owners of the water below their feet, prosper.
May the Israelies and the Palestinians respect their fellow man, and live in peace.
Water... the essence of life...
Water is the nutrient that your body needs the most. Between 60 and 70 percent of adult body weight is water. Child's body is 80 percent water, and five months old embryo's body water content is 94 percent.
Water dissolves solids and delivers nutrients (vitamins and minerals) into the body cells and carries wastes from the cells.
Water regulates body temperature and is essential for breathing. To function normally human body requires at least 1.5 gallons of fluid per day.
Water is naturally low in sodium, has no fat, cholesterol or caffeine and isn't flushed straight through the body like many other beverages...
