drip irrigation has been used used in Germany in 1800s. The only difference is plastic was not available like it is today, so Israelis perfected it with use of plastic instead of clay and other materials. Israel modernized it and made it practical to use, I am not trying to take the credit away. Yet also atmospheric water generators can produce thousands of liters of water from thin air, they are not hard to make ...and can be used in irrigation for better water access.

Israel PATENTED the use. That's make all the difference, under law. You CANNOT take credit away, even though that is clearly your objective. You clearly also have not figured out that atmospheric water generators do not work in countries where it simply does not rain. They are not hard to make, but they won't work in desert climates, either .... will they? Go crawl back into your hole, you anti-Semitic apologist. Throw your computers and cell phones away, too. Whether YOU like it or not, those are all dependent on Israeli IT. All of it patented. Go invent a cell phone and a computer that runs on thousands of liters of water from air that does not have any moisture at all. That should keep you busy for quite a while.

I think this is the way forward for Israel. Not all Muslim are against Israel. These type of actions will reflect the core values of the Israel to the rest of world.
