Does the US really want to play this game? 90% of Israel’s water comes from desalination plants, and now we’ve given Iran the justification to strike back in a similar manner.
Few acts say “crimes against humanity” better than bombing a country’s water supply.
There’s a certain dam in Iraq which could have been targeted at any point during the Iran-Iraq war. Doing so would have guaranteed ended the war in Iran’s favor, killing hundreds of thousands of people in a single act in the process.
Some things are not worth doing. Winning like that is not winning.
