The Israel Water Authority said Tuesday that the large freshwater lake, also known as Lake Kinneret, is 20 centimeters below the line experts consider acceptable for water quality. The sea received only 10 percent of its average rainfall in February.
The low level affects agriculture, wildlife and the environment, according to the authority, which has nearly completely halted pumping water from the Kinneret.
The water shortage in Israel’s north is expected to get worse in the summer, according to reports.
Other areas of Israel receive water from five desalination plants that take water from the Mediterranean Sea. Residents of the Galilee area have objected to a planned desalination plant.
Southern Israel received 90 to 120 percent of its average rainfall this year.
Don’t worry. Soon Moshiach will come and as it says, “Hayardane tissov leochor”. The Jordan river will turn around and flow in reverse. Then the Kinneret will be more than full.
It is known that when so called LGBT rights are approved the waters dry up after California allowed toieva marriage there was a drought in that state and much of the US. The Zionists by allowing LGBT parades put themselves in that compromising position.
I am living right by the shores of the Kinneret & I can tell you that the lake has shrunk in the past 20 years considerably all around, so much that only Tiberias receives its water from it, but no water is being pumped into the national water carrier, whose reservoirs are drying up. In Israel’s big cities, including Jerusalem, people drink & use desalinated sea water.
Of course the Kinneret will be filled when Moshiach comes, and yes, he can come any minute, but a Jew has to do hishtadlus, whether for it’s for Moshiach to come just a minute sooner or for the Kinneret to fill up by natural means.
