United Arabs have been stealing our water

As if the LA fires did not have enough water to fight their fires. It turns out the the UAE has been stealing millions of gallons of water ground waters right next door in Arizona. They've been stealing it from ground water, millions of gallons. The governor and president tried to turn off the spigot in 2023 when Biden and the Democratic governor was in charge. Now who knows if she will be run over by tRump and your daughter's giant Hummer oil devouring machines? This has been millions of gallons a day.

Leave our resources alone! GTH UAE, give up your golden toilets, use your dictatorships and go get your own resources off the backs of the starving poor in your own country you greedy sows!

Good article:

A Saudi dairy company that grows hay in Southern California and Arizona for export to the Middle East is set to lose several leases that allow it to pump unlimited water from government-owned farmlands.

Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs announced this week that the state has terminated one of the leases held by the company, Fondomonte, and will not renew three other leases when they expire in February


American soil is now NOT American soil.
