Water problem was and still one of the problems, which becomes the focus of the heating discussion.

All indicators ensure that water will be, in the next years, a reason of conflict among countries, and what increases these fears are the major changes in the international situation and introducing ideas and attitudes as New International Order, Greater Middle East, Globalization and Pre-emptive war against terrorism.

In respect to these international changes, we find that many countries re-schedule their water policy to ensure their water rations of the available water.

They work on setting up water policy conforms with their future attitudes of agricultural, industrial and social development even if this policy crosses with the interests of other countries that have common water resources as Iraq and Turkey.

Iraq is the estuary country for both Tigris and Euphrates, which affected negatively by the measures of the countries located above Tigris and Euphrates streams, specifically, Turkey, the riverhead.

These measures include the dams that Turkey built and planned to build with their related agricultural, irrigation and industrial projects, in addition to resettle people of east Anatolia according to the increase of the cultivated land.
