Water Source Tampering: Difference between revisions

** Tragically (and ironically), there were a number of anti-Semitic riots and lynchings in late 12th Century Britain which ended with Jewish corpses and pieces thereof being dumped down a well, poisoning it after their deaths (most notably after the Clifford's Tower Massacre in York of 1190 AD- and the well they were dumped in supplied one of the richer Christian parts of town...)

* In a campaign in Northern Africa during [[World War II]], the Germans were upset to find a particular branch of [[Scorched Earth]] strategy: every oasis they came to had a sign in English stating that the oasis had been poisoned by the British army. When they complained that poisoning water constitutes a war crime, the British pointed out that there was absolutely nothing forbidding ''[[Loophole Abuse|putting up false signs]]''.
