Before an argument starts, let me rephrase the crop-spraying thing:
Although the crop spraying doesn't target the villages themselves, it falls
very close to them (within half a K, say) and there is very probably
contamination (certainly unintentional) of rainwater runoff which would
contaminate the wells. The whole thing is a bit of a grey area, I was unable
to get any solid info about it. I wouldn't want it to seem I was accusing
Israel of waging chemical warfare against these people, beyond destroying
their crops.
Contritely
