Who ever said that the Oslo Accords were fair?
So that neatly means that the Palestinians don't have to abide by any foreign judgements, doesn't it.
Fact is: the Israelis and the Palestinians signed an agreement.
Israel has held its side of the bargain (and more), the Palestinians have reneged on it, just as they have reneged on many of their other agreements.

The objective truth is that the Israelis take almost everything and ban the Palestinians from having a reasonable amount.
Proof?

Settlers fill swimming pools whilst villagers need to pay large amounts for trucked in water.
No, they pay a reasonable amount for water from Israel, but that's not necessary, because they would have that water for free had the extremely corrupt Palestinian Authority exploited the opportunities that Israel had placed into their laps.
You also know that West Bankers actually benefitted an awful lot in terms of water provision from the post-1967 Israeli rule? The Jordanians treated them like mud and the Palestinians living there had little access to water.

They aren't allowed to dig wells below a certain level but the settlers can.
This is actually complete lies.
Israel have approved plenty of sites for well-drilling in the PA areas, but the PA have ignored about half of all the offers for sites that Israel has approved for drilling water. The blame is on the PA for not following through the opportunities given to them by Israel to drill for extra water.
The Israelis have instituted numerous water-related projects with the Palestinians, but the PA has not taken the Israelis up on their offers. These projects would have lead to a much greater water supply to ordinary Palestinians living in the PA areas, but the PA doesn't want their people to be prosperous and well-looked after. It, like Hamas, wants them to be miserable and blaming Jews.
I'd be perfectly happy to see a Palestinian state where Arabs and Jews have equal rights - as is much the case in Israel now.

Totally racist regime, totally racist system and those who support it, well, I guess that makes them racist.
And that can be sorted out by killing every Jew on Earth and/or expelling all Jews from their homes.
If anyone is the racist, it is people like you.
It's Boycott Israel Week this week. I have bucked the trend by buying four bottles of lovely Israeli wine, produced in the Golan Heights.
Oslo was obtained under torture. It's a reward to Israel for its illegal activities, and the Gulf Sheikhdoms have lot of blame here as their idiotic punitive measures against the PLO over the Iraq-Kuwait thing is what triggered it, not trying to understand why the PLO would like Iraq tying the withdrawal of Kuwait to the Israeli withdrawal from the occupied territories. It shows that each of them ought to collapse, it really is the Arab Facade.

I bought Spring Nectar mango juice made in Israel.
