Do you pay for electricity?

I presume you pay your home electricity bills. Be it rented or owned; house or appartment; shared or occupied on your own. Simple, isn't it? Not for everybody...

How Palestinians receive their electricity for free

Which means generally that Israeli tax-payers support inhibitants of Authonomy. Inwoluntarily. People from territory where authorities constantly declare enmity towards Israel; where it is consider heroic to commit suicide killing as many Israelis as possible (the names of streets, squares and schools indicate it); territory which had to be separated by wall to deminish terrorist attacks coming from it.
And of course I am aware that many Palestinians would like to live side by side in peace with Israel, but they may suffer punishment for this attitude from their own authorities.
Yet they receive electricity and - as it happens - for free - from the same Israel. How many of you, living in EU would expect your neighbouring country to supply you with electricity without payment (and this is friendly, established organisation)? Well....

The other side of the story is this: PA receives the highest (for a single man) help from abroad in the whole world. Forget Greece which is on first pages of EU newspapers. Forget really poor countries - South Sudan, Congo, Angola, Haiti, Western Sahara etc. It is Palestine Authonomy where population is at the 8th place of WHO list when it comes to obesity risk.

Where does this help go? Well, guess, definitely NOT to build schools, power plants, fight unemployment, build hospitals. In one of the previous posts I was writing about medical help given by Israel, schools are supported by UNRWA (it is the only territory in the world having its own UN agency), electricity is given by Israel just like water supply (and in this parched, hot region it is valuable and scarce resource). But the weapons, luxury villas and hotels are there.

Palestinian Authority wants to become state (or so they say, hardly anything is being done towards it; they rejected every opportunity so far). What kind of state relies on neighbour against which enmity is preached for water and electricity supply? What kind of stste does not even try to become independent from international help? What kind of state makes policy out of enmity towards neighbour from which it expects medical help for citizens?

Just remember, when in few weeks or months we will hear about "criminal Israel denying basic needs like fridges for Palestinians" check if you have paid your electricity bills. And think how long would you have to not pay them to have the electricity supply cut off. Months? Years? I don't think so... Yet "criminal" Israel with its "ethnic cleansing" (according to anti-Israeli rethoric) still supplies people in territory whose authorities openly declare they want to get rid of her and don't want "any Jew in new Palestine".
