UNICEF
Calls Global Lack of Water and Sanitation 'Silent Emergency'
26
Aug 2004, Clean water. It's something the developed world
takes for granted. But more than one billion people still use unsafe drinking
water sources, and 40 percent of the world's population, 2.6 billion people,
lack basic sanitation facilities. U.N. officials are warning that a vicious
cycle of ill health and poverty could defeat efforts to close the gap between
the haves and have nots�

Israel and Golan Heights: It�s Water, Not �Security�
An Israeli general�s
statement that his country does not need to keep Syria�s Golan Heights under
occupation should be seen strictly in the military context. It does not mean
that Israel is ready to return the Golan Heights to Syria as the basis for a
peace agreement or it has any intention to do so. All it might mean is a
boasting by the Israeli military that it is capable of �defending� Israel
without having military forces present on the Golan Heights�
