    Wait, are they blaming heavy equipment manufacturers because they sell heavy equipment to Israel? That makes it a stretch to say that these companies demolished Palestinian homes. I could maybe see a case if that was all that excavation equipment was useful for, but it has a multitude of uses.

    • Clean water access is the upsetting component to it all.

      From the report: “Israel, the Occupying Power, appropriates Palestinian communities water resources in three consecutive steps: through the issuing of discriminatory zoning and planning orders; through the exploitation and redirection of core Palestinian water resources; and through licensing private water providers to exploit and supply the captive Palestinian market for commercial profit.”

      If someone has a gun that’s used for both hunting and a mass shooting, the reasonable aspect doesn’t cover for the atrocious layer. This really just helps demonstrate how Israel is basicly an extension of US global control. Using the equipment the US helped them acquire to tighten control over an underhanded group is obscene from where I stand.
