Turkish Dam - WWIII Will Be Fought To Control Water, Not Oil

Post by Barracuda »

Yet another Turkish Dam will submerge an ancient site:

This is just one of several dams in Turkey that have, or will soon, submerge ancient sites.

Much like the Aswan Dam submerged much of ancient Egypt's history.

Look at a good map of the "middle east" Turkey is the source of most of the water that flows into Syria, and Iraq. And they keep building dams on the rivers.....

You can live without oil, but you can't live without water....

Oh, yeah...big time.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

THe pictures are too small, though.
