The Middle East is running out of water, and parts of it are becoming uninhabitable

Water is running out

Such problems are familiar in many parts of the Middle East – where water is simply running out.

The region has witnessed persistent drought and temperatures so high that they are barely fit for human life. Add water mismanagement and overuse, and projections for the future of water here are grim.

Some Middle Eastern countries, including Iran, Iraq and Jordan, are pumping huge amounts of water from the ground for irrigation as they seek to improve their food self-sufficiency.

“They’re using more water than is available routinely through rain. And so groundwater levels are consequently falling because you’re taking water out faster than it’s being replenished by the rainfall,” he said.

That’s what’s happening in Iran, where a vast network of dams sustains an agricultural sector that drinks up about 90% of the water the country uses.

“Both declining rainfall and increasing demand in these countries are causing many rivers, lakes, and wetlands to dry up,” Iceland said.

The consequences of water becoming even scarcer are dire: Areas could become uninhabitable; tensions over how to share and manage water resources like rivers and lakes could worsen; more political violence could erupt.

I would be inclined to say "meh"; however, one has to keep in mind that societies like these, when stressed, tend to breed apocalyptic malcontents who, sooner or later, start to blame their problems on the outside - usually the developed Western countries - and they decide to exact revenge through terror and violence.

Then maybe they should build desalination plants, otherwise alarmism over the desert is just that alarmism.

I believe Israel gets a lot of water that way.

Also, these countries might want to start promote more carbon dioxide being pumped into the atmosphere.

Maybe the Ayatollahs should spend less money on nukes and more on desalinization and water treatment plants.  You can use enriched uranium to quench thirst or to raise crops.

Unfortunately they are so indoctrinated by their pagan religion and hatred for all non-believers they remain stuck in the 6th century.

Lord help us all when they start getting their hands on nuclear weapons. They will use them.

Israel gets so much water that way that they can export it.

Funny, not, Ayatollahs buying weapons instead of build desalination plants for the people and here in California another group of mental midgets are buying a overpriced unneeded bullet train instead of desperately desalination plants and water storage.

Good for them.

As Trump says, "everything woke turns to s**t."

Tough Noogies. I don't ask you drink, I ask only that you die.

[sneakypete]

Ya just gotta  love a problem that solves itself!

Seal it off. Nobody in,nobody out. No water or other supplies to be delivered.

So is Arizona and Nevada...running out of water.  I haven't read anything yet, but how about caring about U.S.A. ?   

I say they are lying.  Done on purpose. azzholes.  'climate community'.

US declares first-ever Colorado River water shortage – Arizona and Nevada affected

For the first time ever, the US federal government has declared a water shortage on the Colorado River.

That’s because Lake Mead, the nation’s largest reservoir, is lower than it’s ever been. It provides water to 25 million people across Arizona, Nevada, California, and Mexico, but as of Monday it’s at just 1,067 feet above sea level – about 35% full.
The federal water-shortage declaration means that Arizona and Nevada will face mandatory water cut-backs in January. (Why January? isn't it a problem..now?=L.A.)  The cuts will mostly affect farmers in Arizona; the state will lose about one-fifth of the water it normally gets from the river.

“It’s very significant,” explains Brad Udall, senior water and climate scientist at Colorado State University. “It’s something that those of us in the climate community have been worried about for over a decade, based on declining flows and increasing droughts.”
