The rain in Texas belongs to Israel authorities?

Might as well, they can do no wrong in the eyes of our esteemed leaders…

That’s so strange to me. Living in Australia, we face very similar periodic drought conditions that California faces as well. Rather than being discouraged from capturing rainwater to use, we’re actively encouraged to do so, with many governments previously offering subsidies for rainwater tanks particularly during drought times. We have specific colourings for rainwater taps (purple) and you can buy signs to put up in your yard that say that you use rainwater, so people don’t get mad if you’re watering your lawn. These subsidies were usually alongside heavy water restrictions including not being able to water lawns; not watering plants during daylight hours; not using a hose to wash your car (a pressure washer from a bucket is allowed) etc.

That’s atrocious. In your own property, no one else is going to collect it. That’s different from maing huge pipes and drainage systems over the city, just collecting what would otherwise be on your driveway or patio.

In Los Angeles foreigners don’t break your access to water infrastructure and call the army on you when you attempt to fix it.

LA county doesn’t divert the money and materials slated for water treatment plants on bombs and rockets like Hamas does either which is super helpful in getting water to citizens.

Hamas isn’t in power in the West Bank.
