Irrigation from Israel, bombs from Islamofascists
In Uzbekistan, the government of Israel handed over 100 drip irrigation systems to farmers of the Kungrad and Muynak regions of Karakalpakstan as no—strings aid. Farmers also received seeds of paprika, tomato, cucumber, and aubergine.
In a project started in 2001, drip irrigation systems allowed a ten—fold cut in water use and led to a 300—400% increase in vegetable yields.
Meanwhile, also in Uzbekistan, simultaneous suicide bomb attacks hit the US and Israeli embassies, as well as the prosecutor's office. Uzebkistan is currently trying 15 people accused of terror attacks aimed at overthrowing the state. The United States is currently prosecuting a war on Islamofascism. And Israel is currently a Jewish state.
