Water Issues in Israel

NOTE: Recently several Vassar Professors took some students to Israel to learn about the "water issues". Theirs was a very controversial trip, with students from SJP, or Student for Justice in Palestine angry with them for even setting foot in Israel and "others" who were upset they might be presenting a slanted view, possibly overly slanted to the BDS/Boycott Anti Israel point of view. Much has already been written and posted about the contentious meeting at Vassar. 

Today those professors have written a piece in the Vassar College Miscellany News (CLICK THIS!) about their trip. I suggest you read it and see what you think. 

Then I would ask you to read about another trip, taken by the European Policy Center. They took a very different trip. Read about that trip here. (CLICK THIS!)

Now, take a few more minutes and read this review of the Palestinian Water Libel from the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies (CLICK THIS!). 

Finally, finish up with this superb review in the The TOWER Magazine (CLICK This!).

Now, as we say, Can we talk? What do you think now? Do you think the Vassar Professor's trip was proper? Appropriate? Fair? Do you think their description in the school paper is accurate?
