many of the world’s conflicts are rooted in
religious and ethnic divisions, but they can
also be rooted in the battle for oil and water.

iraq invaded kuwait on the suspicion that
kuwait was pumping oil that belonged to
iraq. kurds are demanding that oil-rich
kirkuk should be part of a future kurdistan.                                                               SENEGAL
in sudan, burma (myanmar), liberia and
indonesia, people are unwilling to share the                                                           SIErrA LEoNE
income from oil – which is creating tensions.

in sudan’s case, the government is using oil
revenues to buy weapons, while guerillas are                                               CoLomBIA
trying to sabotage the oil industry.

even the most important element of life
–water – is creating conflict. the mursi and
bodi tribes in ethiopia lay claim to highlands
that catch the most rainwater. in the Central
African republic, local farmers squabble
with nomads about access to water.

            Violence increases in Afghanistan
            despite billions on dollars in humanitarian aid and a huge international security effort, violence is increasing
            in Afghanistan. in the first seven months of 2008, some 3,800 people died, including 1,500 civilians.
            not since the overthrow of the taliban regime in 2001 have so many died. one reason for this is the return
            of the taliban and the strengthening of their position with the help of al-Qaida. Among other things, they
            have bombarded the national army and international security force with rockets. And the number of suicide
            bombings has increased from 123 in 2006 to 160 in 2007.

SENEGAL in sudan, burma (myanmar), liberia and indonesia, people are unwilling to share the SIErrA LEoNE income from oil – which is creating tensions. LIBErIA in sudan’s case, the government is using oil revenues to buy weapons, while guerillas are CoLomBIA trying to sabotage the oil industry. even the most important element of life –water – is creating conflict. the mursi and bodi tribes in ethiopia lay claim to highlands that catch the most rainwater. in the Central African republic, local farmers squabble with nomads about access to water.
