Yes, I've posted that I think Israel's land grab in the West Bank is a true obstacle to peace. I didn't know about the water part, which now sheds some light on Israel's motives in the West Bank. I'll have to read up more on that.

BTW, you impress me. I didn't know that you knew so much about Palestine and Israel. It's seems you've done your homework, which means our debates will have some substance on this issue.

One thing I don't agree with in your post is your interpretation about Britain's favoritism of the Israelis over the Arabs, which I believe is a little off. Britain favored the Arabs by a very large margin. When they finally shipped out of the Middle East, they handed the keys to all of their local armories and forts to the Arabs.

So tell me more about the water? I had read some references to water and water imports awhile back, but you said their's a water aquifer sitting in the West Bank somewhere? Because that would be pretty valuable. Almost like an oil deposit.
