ISRAEL’S TRANSBOUNDARY WATER DISPUTES
Abstract
As water is necessary to the function of life, it is imperative to understand its role in the politically turbulent Middle East. This Comment will focus on Israel's water disputes with her neighbors and how such disputes have led to military confrontation, been partially resolved, or otherwise continue to exist. As populations in the region are expected to increase, the need for water, already in short supply, will be magnified. Thus, negotiations to settle water disputes and provide for equitable distribution of the water resources will become more contentious. This legal analysis of Israel's water disputes seeks to provide some guidance to settling these issues in Israel's future peace negotiations with Syria and Palestine
