This stinks

No, I'm not indulging in a cheap jibe or black humour, just observing that why is it that this had to happen to those already enduring crappy enough living conditions?

I think the Beeb report dropped one too when they reported that the "head of the Palestinian Water Authority told Associated Press that several sewage projects, including one in the (inundated) village, had been halted after international funding dried up in the wake of the election victory of Hamas in January last year."

Politics before basic human needs?
