Let’s discuss more repercussions of a foolish war with Iran surface.
Water Is Now a Key Issue
The Wall Street Journal reports Attacks on Desalination Drag Water Supplies Into the War With Iran
An Iranian drone attack damaged a desalination plant in Bahrain, bringing the war to the oil-rich Persian Gulf’s most strategic resource: drinking water.
The attack did material damage, the Gulf state’s Interior Ministry said Sunday. Iran hadn’t addressed the attack, but a day earlier Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the U.S. had attacked an Iranian desalination plant on the Gulf island of Qeshm. “The U.S. set this precedent, not Iran,” Araghchi said on social media.
A spokesman for the U.S. Central Command, which is responsible for the Middle East, denied that the military hit a desalination plant in Iran.
With desalination plants, the set of infrastructure targets being struck in the war has expanded, marking a new and dangerous escalation in a region where many countries have limited onshore sources of fresh water.
The Middle East’s abundant desalination plants, which remove salt from the Persian Gulf’s seawater, are the key source of drinking water for millions of residents in the arid region.
“It’s really going for the jugular, and in a major way,” said Hussein Ibish, a senior resident scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute, a Washington think tank. “These desalination plants, even more than the energy infrastructure of the Gulf monarchies, are their Achilles’ heel.”
The Middle East accounts for more than 40% of the world’s desalination capacity, with around 5,000 plants feeding its water systems.
Bahrain, where the drone strike occurred, is almost completely dependent on its plants for drinking water for its population of 1.6 million. Israel depends on the plants for about 80% of its drinkable water. About 90% of Kuwait’s water needs are met by desalination.
US May Have Started This
Water Could Decide the Middle East’s Fate
Bloomberg reports In the Iran War, Water Could Decide the Middle East’s Fate
The CIA calls it the “strategic commodity” of the Middle East. But it’s not referring to oil or natural gas. What the American spy agency has in mind is far more prosaic: drinking water. Don’t underestimate it, though, because if military hostilities continue to escalate, water could become the geopolitical commodity that decides the war between the US and Iran.
The US Central Intelligence Agency has been briefing American policymakers for decades on the inherent risk of relying on those plants for such a crucial supply. In a secret assessment in the early 1980s — since declassified — the CIA said: “Senior government officials in some of the countries perceive it [water] as more important than oil to the national well-being.”
About 100 million people live in the countries belonging to the Gulf Cooperation Council — Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Oman — all now under Iranian attack. Kuwait, Qatar and the UAE are, for all practical purposes, completely dependent on the desalination plants, particularly for metropolises such as Dubai. Saudi Arabia, and especially its capital, Riyadh, also relies heavily on them.
Under international law, the desalination plants are protected. But I have seen enough Middle Eastern wars to know the weight of the Geneva Conventions when missiles and bombs start flying. And they are: Iran has attacked a power station in Fujairah, UAE that keeps one of the world’s largest desalination plants running. In Kuwait, debris from a drone interception caused a fire in one of the country’s plants.
The risk is enormous. Take the Jubail desalination plant, located on the Persian Gulf coast of Saudi Arabia. It supplies Riyadh, via a roughly 500-kilometer-long pipeline system, with more than 90% of its drinking water. “Riyadh would have to evacuate within a week if the plant, its pipelines, or associated power infrastructure were seriously damaged or destroyed,” according to a 2008 memo from the US embassy in the kingdom released by Wikileaks.
Still, Iran doesn’t have many options to prevail. Militarily, it cannot escalate against the combined Israeli-American war machine. Its only options are hunker down, in the hope that a long-lasting conflict becomes economically too painful for its enemies, or go after so-called soft targets like energy sites, airports and water installations. From its actions, it’s clear the Islamic Republic has chosen to hit soft targets and hunker down, hoping to outlast the assault. Ultimately, the Islamic Republic sees surviving as winning — even if victory comes with immense losses.
UAE, Central Israel Hit With Missile Attacks
Bloomberg reports UAE, Central Israel Hit With Missile Attacks
The UnitedNations World Food Programme has warned that surging food and fuel prices caused by the conflict in the Middle East will push vulnerable populations in the region and beyond closer towards severe food insecurity.
The escalating supply chain pressures impacting fertilizers, oil and energy are increasing costs for WFP’s operations. Longer transit times are also delaying humanitarian deliveries.
US Tries to Pass the Buck on Rising Gas Prices
US Energy Secretary Chris Wright said any missile strikes on Iranian oil refineries or other infrastructure would be the work of the Israeli military, not the US.
“We have no plans to target” the Iranian oil industry, Wright said on CNN’s State of the Union. “This must be Israel.”
Nightmare Scenario
Daniel Yergin, vice chairman of S&P Global, says the world is facing what could become the “nightmare scenario” for global energy markets if the Middle East conflict drags on.
Speaking on Bloomberg This Weekend, Yergin pointed to the unprecedented disruption. While oil prices have surged above $90 per barrel, he believes we’re not yet at the worst-case scenario.
“The nightmare scenario would be a war that goes on a long time, a disruption that goes on a long time. Prices really skyrocketing — 90 is high, but it’s not skyrocketing — with major impacts on financial markets and ultimately the world economy plummeting into a recession.”
Among many other things, the Trump administration forgot to factor in water.
Dear president Trump, you forgot to note, Iran isn’t Venezuela.

Of course the US started the “water wars”, a war crime. The only question is “how could they be soooo stooopid?” Some simple statistics: desalination plants (easily disabled) provide just 3% of Iran’s water supply. By comparison, Bahrain relies 100% on desalination plants; UAE is 90%; Qatar is 40 – 50%; Saudi Arabia, “the big kahuna”, is 50%. Riyadh depends upon desalination for about 62% of its municipal water supply. Riyadh is a city of 7 million people. The US has declared open season on desalination plants. Brilliant…just freakin’ brilliant!
Only the Trump, Hegseth duo and their media sponsor Fox News/Newscorp could be complicit and evil enough to destroy the water supplies of people in the desert and expose our allies to the reciprocal acts of a desperate enemy.
I do not like either side of this disgusting war. Particularly Israel which has been attacking its neighbors since Balfour in 1917.
WTF!
Unfortunately there are now many countries relying on desalination plants to supply the population. A population too large for the natural resources and water supply. Desal plants are highly energy dependent – when the cost of that energy supply rises then that’s a threat to the population the government must urgently address. A loss of that energy supply and then you have real issues controlling the population.
Singapore- that great financial hub, relies on expensive desalination plus a puny water pipe which comes from Malaysia.
The winners: China and Russia. The losers : The USA’s economy and the suckers that Trump is going to send to the region
Yves Smith has (as usual) a great in depth look at all that is going on What caught my attention: 5) is the Iranian Air Force destroyed?
No. The strikes on Iranian combat planes have been largely confined to the Western part of Iran.
https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2026/03/iran-war-more-trump-bluster-as-us-and-israel-weapon-stocks-thin-and-claims-of-success-questioned-report-of-plans-to-send-special-forces-to-seize-nuclear-material-among-signs-of-us-troop-mobilization.html
If you thought about this, you would realize how utterly stupid that post is (not unusual for Naked Capitalism and French liberal Yves anyway) and how stupid you are to believe this rot!
What are the Iranians saving these planes for? Round two? To carry their enriched uranium to Russia for safe keeping? So a few of the leadership can escape to Russia before they are torn apart?
French liberal Yves? Hahahahaha. “Yves Smith” is a pseudonym for the creator of the Naked Capitalism site. She is no more French than French fires or French toast. Rather, she is half New Yorker and half Deep South (Alabama I think), and she spent years working in Japan.
I did not know this! But she is still a bleeding heart libtard.
Yves is not the best analysis when it comes to war.
the Iranian airforce wasnt much to start with, let’s be honest.
Iran’s best weapons are thier missiles and drones, and they appear to ne using them well.
You base this statement on what evidence?
If I were leading Iran, I would give every gulf country a choice:
1) Support Israel/USA in the war by using US bases for attacks and supply missions, but accept water issues.
2) Get out, remain neutral, allow US bases only to defend your country.
… and go from there.
But you aren’t, so no one gives a crap what you would do.
Take your meds, and I’ll See You Next Tuesday.
I suspect Iran is reserving future attacks on GCC oil infrastructure for later rounds of escalation. Closure of Hormuz accomplishes Iran’s goal of disabling much oil and LNG production for now. All the GCC States (and Israel) surely understand that the water desalination plants are targets which effectively constrains them.
The key for both sides is “escalation management.” If so, attacks may continue but at a lower baseline level for a while. This is to Iran’s advantage because Israel can’t last in a long war. The key to defeating Israel is: don’t over-react, be nimble, let the enemy exhaust themselves, then attack when the time is right. It worked for Mohammed Ali.
Your view is too narrow.
Iran can’t win against mighty American militarily.
The only Iran can inflict immense pressure on US is by economic pain.
That’s why disruption of oil business including block of Hormuz is essential.
Military bases around Iran and its recipients are targets.
These recipients are too rich and supporters of US economy as well
must be disconnected. Bombing desalination is part of that project.
american bases in the region have already been wiped out by Iran
No. They thought it was another elementary school.
It all makes sense now.
Is it not school-age girls that are at the root of all Trump’s tribulations?

Classic Bastiat’s Broken Window – the world will NOT benefit from this.
The Oil refining capacity and lost oil is not just lost to Iran; but lost to the people of the World. Millions of years of time / energy that went into creating the oil is gone. It is now pollution and atmospheric poison. It is obvious that South Korea got wind of what was going to happen when their market collapsed 18% in 2 days.
I am sure that other insiders that knew this was coming made a fortune on Polymarket.
How can Iran’s populace remain stable and secure without their ability to create wealth through sales of Oil? We are punishing the very people we ostensibly are “liberating.” Iran has a proud history of accomplishment in Math and Science and was way ahead of dark ages Europe for many centuries.
The US will make the Iranian’s hate the West more again and will it lead to another hostage crisis, terrorism, and perhaps false flag terrorism to mold and shape a domestic police state.
Destroying water plants (soft easy targets) will only hurt the most downtrodden people in the Middle East not help the Iranians make a stable long term regime change.
Israel is going to reap what it has sown. Israel is lucky now that the split among the Sunni’s and Shia’s is allowing the other Gulf States opportunity to crush a potential future enemy…so they accept (for the moment) the costly losses they are taking.
The next US Administration will just allow the region’s refugees to fill the US country with a religion that is not compatible with that practiced in the West, as much as I respect the people of the world – preaching of radical death to the unbeliever will never work – https://www.politico.eu/article/macron-france-islam-separatism/ …ever.

Relax, Trump’s got this bro…..“trust the plan”
LOLz
(sorry, just had to…this situation is so f’d it’s either laugh or cry)
This is actually a good point. Without oil, Iran has little else in resources to sell to the world to support its ever growing population. One nuclear fusion becomes a commercial reality in 10 years or so, the need for oil will decline steeply. What will oil states with large populations, like Iran, do then?
It will motivate (hopefullY) those against the Regime to action. . Humans can only survive about 3 days w/o water.
The fact that you think nuclear fusion will be a commercial reality in a decade or so disqualifies everything else you have to say. Absolutely ludicrous.
You imply that his also applies to the U.S.
I agree. And many other countries will also share in in this bitter harvest. How many innocents will die, starve, or otherwise suffer because of Israel’s and AIPAC’s paranoia?
This means the war is reaching the end game fast which is good news for the rest of the world that runs on that oil. Bad news of course for civilian populations there.
I’m still surprised how many people think is OK for Iran to be targeting other countries in the middle east besides Israel. Essentially they are confirming everything the US / Israel has said about Iran (it’s a dangerous rogue state) and making them appear like a rabid dog snapping at everyone within reach and that always ends with the dog having to be put down (note that Ukraine hasn’t fired missiles into European neighbors when they don’t do as Ukraine wants – more guns/planes/missiles or help attack Russia etc).
They aren’t doing that. They are only targeting middle eastern countries that house US bases or are being used by the US to launch attacks. That of course is Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain and the UAE. In the first couple of days, they hit targets in Iraq and Jordan. Their president came out and actually apologized saying that military orders had been misinterpreted. But you won’t here that on Fox.
Those countries are hosting the army that’s terrorizing them. The US is out of range.
What would you be doing to fight for your continued existence?
Iran wouldn’t be in this fight right now if they had agreed to what Trump wanted in negotiations.
Iran was complying with the agreement that Trump tore up. The agreement was approved at the UN Security Council, unanimously, and Europe tried to extend it after Trump unilaterally tore it up. We/the US are not to be trusted any more.
Wrong as always! You’re blind, you can’t see the truth in front of you!
The original agreement prohibited Iran from enriching Uranium. But they did so anyway. And none of the past Presidents , even Trump 45, wanted to do anything about it.
So if you got in a fist fight with your neighbor and realized you were outmatched you think it’s OK to instead beat up his wife or kids?
If you are outmatched you have to either die or surrender.
if his wife and kids were attacking you as well….
who says “it’s ok” for Iran to be doing that??
no one doubts Iran is a rogue regime but so clearly is the US. what is a rogue regime? one that ignores international norms and laws? one that launches bombing campaigns without any buy-in from the population, the legislature, allies etc? Trump is the snapping dog. Venezuela one day, Iran coule weks later now he’s talking about Cuba…. and he then sends out tweets of a 9 year old about how badly we are beating Iran like it’s all a big joke. it’s beyond deranged.
“This means the war is reaching the end game fast which is good news for the rest of the world that runs on that oil.”
What is now in play is a complete realignment of the Middle East. Iran has pretty much demolished all US bases along with multiple billion dollar radar systems. The states are now redirecting all equipment to Israel bypassing the sheikdoms.
I would guess this is now the reason for the panic in getting aircraft carriers as the US bases are now easy pickings for the Iranians.
Saudi Arabia had to hold down uprisings in Bahrain the last time and Bahrain may be the first domino to fall.
Also the US short of missiles, radars, etc is now pulling equipment from the rest of the world etc. South Korea.
At the very least, many nations will now assess US backing.
“This means the war is reaching the end game fast which is good news for the rest of the world that runs on that oil.”
The end game approaching may be all US influence in the Middle East. All Americans are advised to leave including diplomats. The only thing American of any substance may be aircraft carriers. Anything American is subject to attack including the the corporate companies.
Of course it remains to be seen how this plays out, but Trump has truly f’d up. Somehow I believe that you believe all the hot air coming out of his mouth is true.
I also seem to recollect that you believed that tariffs would enable Americans to quit paying income taxes. lol
The Orange Asshole is committing war crimes on TV and boasting about it.
I never thought I’d say it but I’m hoping for a military coup.
I feel like I’m living in Germany in 1940.
The military is all in. They fired all the generals who would object to this madness.
If you know history then you would realise that the U.S. purged a great many general staff before entering WW2. Many who had risen through “lateral Arabesque”. Incompetency followed by promotion to an alleged harmless position position.
There can’t be a coup when the senate just voted 53-47 to continue the insanity in Iran. Trump is crazy, but so are all of the republicans in Congress – and probably 50%+ of the democrats who also support the war but only wanted to show opposition to Trump.
Bibi and Trump thought they had an opportunity to exploit instability in the Iran regime after exploiting largely initially peaceful protests in Iran that spiraled with U.S. and Israel’s help into killing police. The Iranians then used force to kill and arrest 1,000’s of Iranians and infiltrators.
The ensuing attack by the U.S. and Israel has turned out to be a massive miscalculation. Got oil?
This war on Iran could go down in history as the worst military strategic blunder of all time, right up there with Napoleon’s Waterloo and Hitler’s Battle of Stalingrad. Hubris combined with poor planning times 10.
I’d leave Waterloo and Napoleon out of any comparison with Hitler and especially President Elozondo Mountain Dew Trump.
This is immoral behavior on our part.
Saw a You Tube video that said Bahrain uses 4,000% of water. Believe Iran was at 90. Recommended is 10% of 100 so anything over 100 is bad, more than the environment can produce. Israel has 5 desalinization plants that produce 80% of their water and missile hitting around the.plants. Taking them out is existential.
No one talks about what they are doing with the concentrated salts that are left over after the water is cleaned. These should not just be dumped back into the water because it will kill the ocean/fish life.
Imagine the harm Iran could cause with the 100,000 drones and ballistic missiles they were busily manufacturing. Just look at what Russia has achieved with their Iranian drones. That is why the regime needs to be stopped. You think gas prices are high now? What would they be after Iran completed its nuclear weapons and demanded OPEC comply with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps mandated quotas. Stop cheerleading for this radical Islamic state and stand with the Free world to stop these monsters.
If Iran doesn’t have a nuke by May1, 2026, they are the dumbest motherfuckers on the face of the earth.
Trump couldn’t take “Yes’” for an answer.
NO, you hold that title. No risk that you will lose it either.
The argument that if you can imagine something bad that a country might do, it is OK to attack them is not a persuasive one for very obvious reasons. By that standard we should certainly attack Israel, as well as almost every other country in the world.
I suppose that is the best argument there is for attacking Iran.
Israel should be glassed, and made into a skate park.
Iran never hurt anybody. WTF are you talking about?
Revisionist history!
I keep asking people to name one American killed by the Iranian regime. No one ever can because it never happened. The real problem with Iran is they refuse to cut the US in on their oil sales.
When the US shot down an Iranian civilian passenger jet in the 1980s, Iran used international arbitration. They did not use retaliatory violence though if they did, it would be understandable.
“In order to stop Iran from doing something they might be able to do tomorrow, we need to do them ourselves and help Israel do those same things today.”
“some of the countries perceive it [water] as more important than oil to the national well-being.” That is a false dichotomy since desalination is very energy-intensive and thus only practical in places with an abundant supply of cheap energy, like the Gulf. If the energy infrastructure is sufficiently deteriorated it will have a knock-on effect on desalination plants.
People are so used to having food and water, and spending all their time and energy worrying about and striving for unnecessary bullshit.
I think we’re all going to learn what’s important, the hard way.
Meanwhile, USA uses more DRINKING WATER than any other country to flush toilets.
LOLz
I’ll be reflecting on this unfolding tragedy while I’m washing my truck this AM.
And sipping a delicious Brawndo, no doubt.
Iran could get by on less water if they stopped making babies they can’t feed or raise properly.
Did you volunteer for the George Wallace for President campaign?
Or was David Duke more your style?
Attacking a country that is not a threat to us without any plan or strategy for victory is idiotic to the point of insanity. Trump now claims three objectives in Iran: (1) stop nuclear weapons from being developed; (2) eliminate Iran’s ballistic missiles; and (3) stop the country’s support of other groups in the Middle East that oppose Israel. There is no way to accomplish any of these goals by bombing the country from the skies. Troops on the ground are necessary if this is the real goal. Either Trump pulls out and declares victory, or this will be a protracted war with ground troops. This war is costing billions of dollars a day.
I see no scenario in which America is better off when this war ends than it was before it started.
How would the ground troops get there?
What would be their fate?
Iran is full of mountains and has an army.
US does not have the troops and the conditions do not allow a 6 month build up in calm.
No, it would not be smart to start a ground war, but why would anyone expect this administration to act logically or do what is in America’s best interest?
The US has no power over any of those 3 things. If you know how to build nuclear weapons and have the determination to do so, you can do it. If you know how to build a ballistic missile and have the determination to do so, you can do it. If they want to support people who oppose Israeli aggression and terrorism, how are you going to stop them? The best the US can do set them back a few years. But war will just make their determination stronger.
If the regime is overthrown and a puppet dictator installed, the three goals are easy to accomplish. What is not easy is to actually overthrow the regime, especially if you are trying to do that through bombing alone.
Puppet dictators don’t last forever. But memories of your school-age daughters being killed does.
There is a reason the last puppet dictator put in place by America via a coup in 1953 was eventually thrown out by the Iranian people
Luckily, you have no role in making important decisions.
Interesting that the new Ayatollah has been selected, but they are not naming him yet. Obviously he will be an immediate target.
RT says “Iran cleric Ayatollah Alamolhoda”
At first I though you were making a joke on “Alamo”.
Ayatollah Ala-Joda, hysterical. Spanish translation=Ayatollah Screwed.
Correct he will be killed the instant the name and location are revealed.
If Iran can set up an underground bunker from which the Ayatollah repeatedly addresses the nation, it could be effective at boosting morale. That is exactly what Zelenskyy did after the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Most of Iran people hate Iran’s Islamic Theocracy! The few that support it are, as usual, those who benefit from it, either through family relationships, employment or other connections.
They are busy building him another bomb proof shelter! [rotflol]
Is the publicized deployment of the nuke-capable B1 to the region a “this or that” opening to get Iran to turn over their 400kg of higher enriched uranium?
Enquiring minds want to know
Many not happy about the prospect of fighting the Iranians in their underground nuclear facilities
Spain’s “no nuclear weapons” policy is the reason why the deployment of the bomber to England instead of Spain
Fighting Iran about how they are too irresponsible to have an imaginary nuke;
US decides to use real nuke ?
The height of logic.
Presumable end result?
Iran will finally tack and repeal the “nukes are unIslamic” doctrine

Now that more documents are released that implicate Trump directly for having sexually abused a minor age girl, I think Trump has got his “very good reason” to send in foot soldiers. Anything to distract!
BTW – Russia is lauging all the way to the bank, and doing so while helping Iran with intelligence. But Trump will let Putin get away with anything.
Yes. And to attack elementary school girls.
They are after all the root of this problems.
It’s not a matter of “letting” Putin get away with anything. Last I checked Russia just bumped their troop count up to 2 1/2 million, it makes their military size ranked by number of troops double the size of the US and 3 biggest western Europe armies combined. The top three Western European countries couldn’t even put together an army as big as the United States Marine Corps. And we are not even discussing Russian largest in the world nuclear asset stockpiles.
Both DJT and Vlad Chabadniks BTW. Explains a lot.
At a congressional briefing Tuesday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio was asked whether Iran’s enriched uranium would be secured. “People are going to have to go and get it,” he said, without specifying who.
madness
They already know how to produce more.
Somebody Orange has been watching too many movies and thinks they are real.
One special operation to secure the nuclear package and the world is safe for everyone!
A humanitarian disaster is unfolding. Tens of millions of refugees will flood Europe and the US.
Trump launched an unconstitutional and illegal war and should be impeached and convicted and removed from office.
He and Bibi should then be tried for war crimes because there is no doubt they are war criminals.
Agree – But it won’t happen in the US, could happen in Israel
Israel may convict Netanyahoo of corruption, but there is no way they will even charge him with war crimes. The genocide he committed in Gaza was overwhelmingly supported by the Israeli public.
The new world order:
Fuck a kid, become king.
Take a bribe, get in trouble.
BTW, When this war started, word was that Netanyahu flew to Berlin. If true, as a signatory to the ICC, Germany should have arrested him as an indicted war criminal. More evidence that the Europeons (esp Germany) are toothless and full of shit.
That’s the plan, Israel wants the place cleared out. See: Syria
Syria is relatively quite these days with a less radical leader. The same thing needs to happen in Iran!
Syria’s less radical leader? You mean the guy who now calls himself Ahmed al-Sharaa, the former Al-Qaeda leader on whose head the US had placed a $10 million bounty?
Yes, the literal head chopper received with state honors in the White House.
Israel doesn’t have the right to choose other countries leaders. But Israel has never felt constrained by laws or morality it loudly demands of others.
How about the military blowing up boats in the water ?
How about the CIA guys fomenting all this mayhem in virtually every country around the globe?
How about George Bush and all the others?
How about the media clapping like seals?
The country is full of people who have committed war crimes.
Remember Curtis Lemay who wrote that it is a good thing we won the war, otherwise we would all be hung as war criminals (Korea, ww2)
Yes, the US has a history of war crimes. I am not denying that at all. And those past war criminals should have been held to account. Because they weren’t that does not mean Trump should not be held to account.
I guess the Iranian leadership should have considered this before thinking that Trump was like other US Presidents and they could mess with the USA. FAFO!
Jojo appears to be cheering on a criminal as he commits his crimes.
Who’s going to impeach Agent Orange, the Knesset in the Beltway?
