OUTRAGE OVER CAMERON’S SILENCE ON WATER DEPRIVATION IN GAZA

January 20, 2024

A critical conversation between the British Foreign Secretary, David Cameron, and Brendan O’Hara British Member of Parliament and member of the Scottish National Party, during a parliamentary committee inquiry which exposes Israel’s breach of international humanitarian law despite Cameron doing everything to avoid admitting it.

But the facts are very clear in this report. Cameron’s statement, ‘one of the things we’d like the Israelis to do is switch the water back on,’ sparks questions about Israel’s power to control this vital resource.

Brendan O’Hara rightly probes, highlighting that acknowledging Israel’s ability to turn the water off and having the power to turn it back on, but choosing not to, may constitute a breach of international humanitarian law. In response, Cameron, while not claiming legal expertise, emphasizes the necessity for Israel to switch the water on.

This isn’t even normal. THESE ARE BASIC NEEDS. WATER. They either bomb these poor Palestinians or they leave them hungry and THIRSTY. HOW INHUMANE IS THAT?

SANCTIONS ARE DEMANDED NOW.

English Script:
David Cameron: One of the issues we’d like the Israelis to look at is switching the water back on into northern Gaza because that will make a difference.

Brendan O’hara: So, you said, and I quote, “one of the things we’d like the Israelis to do is switch the water back on”. Now, that says that they turned it off. It says that you recognize they have the power to turn it on. Therefore, isn’t turning water off and having the ability to turn it back on, but choosing not to, isn’t that a breach of international humanitarian law?

David Cameron: It’s just something they ought to do, in my view.

Brendan O’hara: No, and of course they should do it. Every human being would say you don’t cut people’s water supply off. But I’m asking you and your position as foreign secretary, around the point of international humanitarian law. If Israel has the power to turn the water back on, that they turned off, surely that is a flagrant breach of international humanitarian law?

David Cameron: Well, I’m not a lawyer. My view is they ought to switch it on because the north of Gaza, the conflict is now effectively over there, and so getting more water and power into northern Gaza would be a very good thing to do. You don’t have to be a lawyer to make a judgment about that. You just need to be a human being.
