Abstract

Over the last hundred years, constricted Water resources coupled with growing Water demands and adverse climate changes have fuelled Water politicization. This has pushed striving to secure Water supplies to the center of attention of the territory-holders (rulers and chief executives). Furthermore, more than 300 rivers flow through two or more countries’ borders which are per se a source of political instability. Through indisputable mutual dependence, this has made Water a critical issue for such countries and has prompted some scholars to dub 21 century “ the Water century” on following the lead of the 20 century as “ the oil century” . This is a century when the Water will be both the child and the mother of violent confrontations. It goes without saying that dry, Water-scarce parts of the world will be the geopolitics of the crisis. Being located on the world arid belt on the one hand and with more than 50% of the world population in the same drainage basin on the other hand has given this region a massive potential for violence. Once mixed with ethnic hostilities, land-border disputes and religious-political conflict, Water becomes a ploy for regional rivalry and tensions. Out of 37 violent confrontations over Water in the last 50 years, 30 have taken place in this region in form of military showdowns. Employing the qualitative descriptive-analytical methodology and using librarian resources, this study looked into the process of Golan Heights occupation by the Zionist regime. Affirming the military significance of this region for Zionists, this study assumes that Water and hyrdo-political value of this region played significant roles in 5-decade occupation and later illegal annexation of the Golan Heights by the Zionist regime. The results showed that the Zionist regime would never abandon the Water resources of the region even if it had to retreat from the occupied lands as part of the Middle East Peace Plan.
