are all lying, and about exactly the same things to boot. Apart from them, there are more sources claiming the same thing as well; there is severe discrimination in allocation of water between Israel and the Palestinians.

I took a peek at your "evidence", and it doesn't correspond to the actual research and figures. It would be easier if your sources explained where their alternative figures come from, but I suppose it's difficult with imaginary numbers.

I'm sorry, I don't do fairy tales, but if you believe you've actually found something wrong with the links I've provided downthread, please let me know.

Here's just one example of B'tselem lying about civilian casualties from Cast Lead 2009 shira Jul 2016 #11

So when different neutral organizations reach the same conclusion about the casualties independently Little Tich Jul 2016 #16

Those "different neutral" sources all got their info. from Hamas' Gaza Health Ministry shira Jul 2016 #18

If 69-75% of the casualties were civilians, it's not a lie to claim that. Little Tich Jul 2016 #20

It wasn't 69-75%. That was a lie Hamas admitted when they agreed w/ the IDF numbers.... shira Jul 2016 #21

I trust the UN, B'tselem, HRW etc, but I don't trust the IDF. Little Tich Jul 2016 #22

Where did the UN, B'tselem, HRW get their numbers from? It was Hamas, wasn't it? shira Jul 2016 #23

You trust Hamas' figures b/c that's where the UN, B'tselem, HRW got their numbers shira Jul 2016 #26

The Human rights NGOs are using available evidence, including figures from Hamas. Little Tich Jul 2016 #27

Stick to the topic, B'tselem. They're proven liars, inciting hatred.... shira Jul 2016 #15

They actually aren't proven liars. It's just that the Israeli right refuses to accept Ken Burch Jul 2016 #17
