Isn't the Dead Sea supposed to be "healed" (ie made into fresh water) at the Second Coming of Christ (or just prior to)?

there are far too many people in the Levant.
Ocean desalinization is the only option, but it is expensive and vulnerable to terrorist attack.

"The Dead Sea is a unique international treasure, and it's the world's responsibility to take decisive action immediately to save this treasure," al-Nasser said. Right. The "Dead" Sea is useful for what exactly? It's dead Jim.

I don't get the need for fresh water..
Compared to the Dead Sea, ANY sea water would be considered "fresh"..
If they want to raise the water level, just run a pipline from the Meditteranean to the Dead Sea and pipe in whatever water they need to bring it up to "normal" levels.
Even seawater would reduce the salinity drastically..

The sea – the saltiest water in the world and the lowest point on earth – has been dropping 3.3 feet per year for at least the past 20 years, mostly because of river diversion projects by Syria and Israel, according to experts.
Soon to be renamed the Dead and Gone Sea...
