Trump Fed Up Funding Palestinians

We know financial aid to Israel results in endless worldly contributions for better lives. Anyone care to educate us as to what financial aid to Palestinians results in?

Trump fed up with funding Palestinians, threatens to shut down mission in Washington


The Palestinians, as well as the larger Arab and Muslim world, do not contribute to the world. The Palestinians will maintain falsely that they can't contribute because they are "oppressed." But they are part of the larger Arab nation, who are all leeches.

Yeah, let's hope that those non contributing Arabs cut all oil supplies to the US as soon as possible. Seeing as they make no contribution to the world it wouldn't make the slightest difference would it!

Dude, do You even realize who will immediately step in with a new technology?

Just imagine where it will leave countries like Egypt,Belarus and Mexico...

New technology? You mean like coal and oil powered cars, oh, sorry, I mean electric cars?

Oh, I think that Egypt, Belarus and Mexico will do just fine. I thought it was America that was cutting funding to those non contributing Arabs?

When I said contributing, I meant ppl using their brainpower and sweat to come up with new technology and ideas. Israelis invented "drip" agriculture and cherry tomatoes. I didn't mean a commodity that happens to be underneath somebody's ground, as a matter of pure luck.
 
ppl using their brainpower and sweat to come up with new technology and ideas

I think that accusation can be leveled at a great many people!

Israelis invented "drip" agriculture

Ah hem, you will find that drip irrigation has been around since ancient times, first by the Chinese I believe with modern drip irrigation being attributed to Germany. Worse is yet to come.... You will find a great many examples of 'drip irrigation' in Spain, attributed to the Moriscos.

The "pure luck" of having a commodity beneath ones feat is similar to the "pure luck" that America became a wealthy country through immigration wouldn't you say?

As you can see there is more to "contributing" than coming up with technology and ideas.

As for your cherry tomatoes... Maybe you need to speak to the Aztecs about that one

Aww stop whining and discrediting Israel's great acheivements, the fact remains that many Arab and African countries are currently hiring Israeli agricultural and drip irrigation companies.

And if it weren't for Western technology and contracts, the Arabs would NEVER have known how to drill that oil out of the ground.
 
Aww stop whining and discrediting Israel's great acheivements

Hasbara has done a good job on you roodboy!

How about you stop your bullshitting about what Israel DIDN'T do!

Drip irrigation and cherry tomatoes "Israels great achievements"?

Has to be the funniest joke I have heard in a very long time!

Talk about misinformation and "fake news"!

Ah wait, you love all that "fake news" BS don't you... Your beloved leader is full of it!

Ya okay, internet Jihadi tough guy waving the PaliNazi flag.

So you know better than all these countries who's govt.'s are contracting Israel for drip irrigation and agriculture technology.

It's very entertaining reading your hissyfits when you are confronted with the TRUTH.

Well, my hasbara retard, you either accept that what hasbara has dealt you, and be an eternal hasbara retard or...

For once, accept reality and that hasbara is no grasp of reality.

The Chinese came up with the idea of drip irrigation and Israel certainly had nothing to do with the "invention" of cherry tomatoes.

If you cannot accept that as fact then, I would respectfully suggest, you seek psychiatric help!

Your dumbass rants and misunderstanding of the truth is scarily telling of your limited mentality roodboy.

Now, go learn something about cherry tomatoes and where they originate and come back to me when you have educated yourself with FACTS and, only then, will I accept your apology.

Yes computerized drip irrigation is an Israeli technology now being implemented in Africa and India.
And cherry tomatoes are too an Israeli development. There're a lot of species, no one is saying Israel invented the small tomato, they've developed their own kind of tomato with its unique properties.

:eusa_doh:

We're almost in 2020, and You're still talking about burning dead animals for heat.

Look around You -
Developed countries are already seriously discussing a vast transition to robotic work force, and new economic models to accommodate it. In less than 10 years Tel-Aviv's public transportation will all turn autonomous connected to the grid, smart cities are being planned...

Saudi Arabia is changing it's oil-based economy for a reason.
So tell me where do You see the Arabs in 20 years, eating oil?

I find it interesting that the Internet jihadi whines about Israel and tries to belittle its acheivements, while hundreds of countries are spending their money trying to learn Israeli brainpower, ingenuity and technology.

Negate this, FOOL:

Simcha Blass
Biography
Simcha Blass was born in Warsaw, Poland, which was then part of the Russian Empire, to an Orthodox Jewish family. He was active in the Jewish self-defense units organized in Warsaw to defend Jews during the end of World War I. His engineering studies in Warsaw were interrupted by the Polish-Soviet War and completed after that war. During the war, he was recruited to the Polish Army, there he invented for the Polish Air Force, a meteorological appliance, measuring the intensity and direction of winds.

Later, he invented, patented and developed an operative wheat planting machine, which was tested in Europe (and even sold there) and in Palestine (1927), but proved uneconomical. The main motivation for this invention was Zionism (i.e. enabling more Jews settle in Palestine). Zionism was the main drive for most of his other activities in adult life.

Water engineering in the Yishuv and State of Israel
During the years 1930–1948 he was the most known water engineer in the Jewish Yishuv of Palestine. He planned the first modern aqueduct in the Jordanvalley. He was the chief engineer and one of the founders (with Levi Eshkol and Pinchas Sapir) of Mekorot water company (established 1937, now Israel's national water company).

checking the sabotaged water pipeline to the Negev isolated settlements,1948
Later, in 1946, he planned the first water pipeline to the Negev. The pipes for which had been used in London during The Blitz for extinguishing fire and bought by Blass after World War II. This pipeline enabled the establishment of 11 new Jewish settlements in the Negev(which was under the British Mandate of Palestine) on a single evening (Yom Kippur night) in 1946 (but also served Arab Bedouins). The Jewish settlements in the Negev had a major role influencing the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine (UNSCOP) to include most of the Negev within the boundaries of the recommended Jewish state.

In 1948 to 1956 Blass was the founder and director of the governmental water institutions of the new state of Israel, the official councillor of the governmenton water affairs and head of planners of the Israeli National Water Carrier.

Blass wrote the chapter "Development of Water Resources in Palestine" in Encyclopaedia Hebraica.

Drip irrigation
In the early 1930s, a farmer drew his attention to a big tree, growing in his backyard "without water". After digging below the apparently dry surface, Simcha Blass discovered why: water from a leaking coupling was causing a small wet area on the surface, while an expanding onion shaped area of underground water was reaching the roots of this particular tree—and not the others. This sight of tiny drops penetrating the soil causing the growth of a giant tree provided the catalyst for Blass's invention. The drip irrigation concept was born and experiments that followed led Blass to create an irrigation device that used friction and water pressure loss to leak drops of water at regular intervals. Recognizing the high potential of his discovery, he began to look for ways to turn his idea into a product.

In the late 1950s, with the advent of modern plastics during and after World War II, he took a major step towards implementing his idea. After leaving government service in 1956 he reopened his private Engineering office and worked with his son Yeshayahu on the drip irrigation idea. The main aspect of the new invention was to release water through larger and longer passageways (rather than tiny holes) by using friction to slow water inside a plastic emitter. Larger passageways prevented the blocking of tiny holes by very small particles. The first experimental system of this type was established in 1959. In the early 1960s, Blass developed and patented this method and the new dripper was the first practical surface drip irrigation emitter.

During the years 1960 to 1965 Blass developed the drip-irrigation systems and sold them inside Israel and abroad. In 1965 he contacted Arie Bahir who was in charge of the industry in the kibbutzim in order to find a kibbutz to give him the task of further developing this new enterprise. Out of some suggestions, Blass chose kibbutz Hazerim in the Negev.

Online dripper system
For the desert-based Kibbutz Hatzerim looking to expand its activities beyond agriculture, Simcha Blass's invention opened up a world of possibilities. Blass and his son Yeshayahu and Kibbutz Hatzerim signed a contract (on August 10, 1965) establishing Netafim Irrigation Company (80% Kibbutz Hatzerim and 20% Blass). Production began in 1966. With Blass's original narrow spaghetti tube model and later models as the starting point, Netafim engineers working with Blass, developed the online dripper—indeed allowing the desert to bloom.

Roodboy, why do you continue with this hasbara bullshit?

Your use of wikipedia is hilariously telling. You are so sucked in by the hasbara bullshit media machine you are struggling with reality.

Let me make it very clear for you...

Israel did NOT invent cherry tomatoes (South America)
Israel did NOT invent drip irrigation (China)

End of story.

If you had even half a brain you would know that this is fact. Unlike the hasbara bullshit that came up with these two strangely bizarre claims to try and show how 'great' Israel is.

Roudy supported his (and my) theory with proof. Humanity, where is YOUR proof that China developed drip irrigation?
