    I imagine the ban on rainwater collection is from before the war, and I imagine there are similar laws in Israel.

    There’s lots to be mad at the Israelis for doing. We don’t need to make things up. This article on water in Gaza makes a good point:

    A graphic representation of the unfair restrictions is that while many Jewish settlements have swimming pools, Palestinians in “Area C” of the West Bank are not allowed cisterns for collecting rainwater.
