I sense a touch of irony there! - So, Charity is political after all!!!
It seems that the Zionist Government is hell bent on people acquiring impairments either through waging war, malnutrition or indeed lack of water.
Israelis have access to more than four times more water than do Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, the World Bank said in a report today.
It said that a 1995 interim peace accord that governs the allocation of water has proven inadequate, as the Palestinian Authority has been fragmented by the last eight years of fighting while Israel has improved its own water facilities.
The World Bank has asked for international agencies to offer more help to Palestine to build a more suitable water infrastructure. Fat chance of that!
I suggest boycotting Lloyds TSB - they froze a charity's bank account during the war on Gaza who gave aid to Palestians. It transpires - suprise suprise, that two of its illustrious people advised the Government on financial issues, etc etc.
