Israel is no longer subject to “water pressure” from her neighbors! Watch the desert blossom now!

I wonder if Californians wouldn’t benefit from reading FR articles like this.

As if things weren’t bad enough, now the Zionists have occupied the Palestinian’s desalinization plants.

How nice! While in America under obama's destructive policies we are subject to "illegal immigration pressure" and have been watching our deserts blossom with invaders.

If the people running California had half a brain they would be building these instead of that silly high speed rail system.

Absolutely.  I believe this is Southern California's future.  The sooner the better.

I also believe there is need for this nationwide.  Fresh water is in high demand nationwide.  As the population grows, alternative sources such as this will help releave presures in our interior, as coastal demands are met with desalinization.

California can be used as a good example.  The California Water Aquaduct brings water down from Northern California to Southern California.  The transfers of water leave Northern California lakes below their normal levels.  If Southern California would man up and develop the full potential of desalinization, Northern California would be a lot better positioned as well.  Pressures on the Colorado River would also be abated.

Not many Californians want the high speed rail. It’s a boondoggle of major proportions.

Water is always a problem in the desert.

The Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) is about midway between the the too-high and too-low lines. About a year ago it was in danger of getting too high.

The anxiety is that the Kinneret wasn’t replenished as much this winter, not that it’s critical right now.

I’m sure the Palis are salivating over the value of the scrap metals they could obtain and sell if they were to capture this plant, destroy and dismantle it.

The world’s water is steadily accreting in Antarctica.

There hasn’t been a single year in our lifetimes that the depth of ice in Antarctica has failed to increase.

If we want cheap fresh water, we need to mine it in Antarctica; we’ll never run out.

“I wonder if Californians wouldn’t benefit from reading FR articles like this.”

Nope! The rat bastards, who live in LA and Follywood control the state’s water via the legislature and Moonbeam. They get the water cheaper than we do up north where the water comes from. So there is no reason for them to build desalination plants.

It is funny how the enviro Nazis never try to shut down the water going from N. California to S. California.

We are still living the theme of Chinatown.

Obviously not enough, care enough, to try to stop it, either.

Thanks for posting a breath of sanity and clarity from S. California re water.

"I also believe there is need for this nationwide. Fresh water is in high demand nationwide. As the population grows, alternative sources such as this will help releave presures in our interior, as coastal demands are met with desalinization. California can be used as a good example. The California Water Aquaduct brings water down from Northern California to Southern California. The transfers of water leave Northern California lakes below their normal levels. If Southern California would man up and develop the full potential of desalinization, Northern California would be a lot better positioned as well. Pressures on the Colorado River would also be abated." Unfortunately, until the enviro whackos turn against S California re where they get their water, your thoughts of sanity will never happen.

>> “Situated in the heart of the Middle East...” <<

.
Another stupid, ignorant error!

Not only is Israel not “in the heart of the Middle East,” it isn’t even near the Middle East.

The Middle East begins at the Euphrates river, and its “heart” is thousands of miles east of that. India is the heart of the Middle East.
