Israel’s national water company, Mekorot, is pushing farmers off their land in Latin America. They’re buying up water rights, restricting access, killing crops, and making the land unaffordable to own. Once the land is devalued, Israeli families move in and buy it at a steep discount. This is the same company that diverts water from Palestinian farms to illegal Israeli settlements. Local protesters are also contacting me directly. Since Mekorot took over, they’re reporting water quality at an all-time low: brown, foul-smelling water and random shutoffs with no timeline for when service will return. This is how they operate. This is how they steal a country, piece by piece.

Q: What you’re saying is that for political reasons, hostages died, were murdered in captivity when they could have come home alive? Netanyahu’s former military secretary: “That is accurate. They could have come home earlier.”
