Many people have been asking, what is wrong with the world? Well, gosh darnit, I think I have the answer.

This doesn't really have to do with the election, but more with tolerance. I mean, what's wrong with all those ignorant religious text thumpers out there?

Answer: They are SEVERELY dehydrated.

Seriously, look at it. Middle East? DEHYDRATED! Middle America? DEHYDRATED! Note that most states near bodies of water are more developed...what's the word...intellectually/culturally? Wars in Africa? DEHYDRATED!

These people are just lacking water!

Leave it to the Leftist Elite(Not Liberals) to believe they can solve the problems of the people with bottled water.

I'm not saying it's republicans, which I thought I clarified, I'm just saying what's with all the Jesus doesn't love you sinners and I'm having sex with my brother crap? COME ON PEOPLE, you have to admit, those obese people wandering around with mullets have something seriously wrong with them.

What about France? They have tonnes of bottled water, but still decide religious people can't wear religious symbols of "ostentatious dimensions". Plus they use a subjunctive.

You can't drink from the Mediterranean; it causes you to... die.

Actually, a buddy and I came to the conclusion that the Middle East was always at war because that's where God let His big sweaty ball sack sit, and that world peace could be accomplished through lots of holy talcum powder.

But, hey, water works too :p

Would said talcum powder have to be blessed by the Pope?

Colombia: plenty of water, most likely place in the world to get taken as a hostage.

Congo: plenty of water, plenty of wars.

Australia: second driest continent, relatively safe and happy place.

Hrm, no I think your theory is proven wrong.

Still, the lack of water does cause a lot of problems in some places (kinda need it to grow things).

So, no, it won't sort everything, but it would be extremely helpful if water was more abundent in the drier parts of the world.

Yes, but the Congo and Colombia thing have wars because of other circumstances. I'm saying GENERALLY it's because people are dehydrated.

I think you're wrong. I don't think it's the major cause of problems. People who are dehydrated aren't likely to be fighting each other, they're likely to be hallucinating and weak and dying.

South East Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa and South America all have lots of water, and lots of problems.

A more likely explanation is lack of resources (yes, including water sometimes, but not because the people causing the trouble haven't drunk enough) and culture.

the problem with your thery is the fact that europe had most water in the world, and whole the history they had most of the wars.
baside, the middle east include two big rivers: the Prat and the Hidekel. and Egypt has the Nile.
