This is shocking that a human being would be this much inhuman. I incidentally just out of curiosity did a google search to check which religious group he was from.... it was disappointing to find my answer. I am sorry but this could be considered as i am hating but no i am not. Simply put most corporate CEO's comes up with radical claims as such always turns out ... the special ones.

Warning anti-semitism. Religious beliefs are not to be discussed.

If you listen and think about what he says instead of tapping your knee with a hammer, his position is not as inhuman as it seems at first flush. Not saying I agree, but basicly he is saying that it is hard to deal sensibly with a resource if it does not have a specific value attached to it; we put a monetary value on food, why not not water?

Were you really disappointed? Funny how so many prejudiced comments start with "I'm not X" before making it clear that they are in fact X. First, I am skeptical about the claim that he is Jewish because 1. he is Austrian and there aint many Jews in Austria and 2. the only references I could find online to his being Jewish were on a couple of virulently anti-semitic sites. Secondly and much more importantly, what the **** does it matter? Is his position on water a result of his religion? Unlikely. If you want to start throwing around religious slurs, it would be very easy for me to make a long list of people who have done abominable acts directly as a result of their religious beliefs, whether Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, or Muslim.

my concern was the issue with privatizing water. the world is basically run by corporate giants, the illusion of power of democracy held by world political thinkers is just a white wash as most laws bills and all that are only pulled and pushed by the corporate giants that backs up those politicians.

water is something u simply cant live without, now if you are ok with letting these people privatizing its then its a problem, no matter how well organized his words are the idea is they wanna privatize water, which is not acceptable in no form of organized concepts.

about the indication to religion, well i am just surprised to find every single corporate giant who claimed such atrocities were from that same group. maybe we live in a world where business is the true god we wanna serve. I am just thinking in terms of how the world dynamics is moving.

does these corporate giants have the capability to resolve world hunger? statistics says they can resolve world hunger in 24 days. why do they not do it? greed and only greed. maybe its greed for more wealth or maybe its power. at the end of the day what we do makes what we are. and those corporate people simply are not our (little people) friends.

if a majority of those corporate giants are from a specific group then we must question why this particular instance is not focused by media. no wait media is owned by this same corporate giants as well. i am just thinking out loud. ok i am tired now. maybe i am prejudice but this forces me to think.

No. Ultimately NATO will not intervene. The US will not go to war over Ukraine. The western leaders are being very weak kneed about it all, but I suppose their options are very limited given the ultimate fact that they are not willing to fight about it (or even pretend to be willing)...and that Europe gets 40% of its natural gas from Russia.

I bet Ukraine regrets giving up its nuclear weapons.
