A long history, in fact since the dawn of history, of threats to drinking water systems during conflicts has plagued humans. Water has been a strategic objective in armed conflicts throughout history. Gleick (1994, 1998, 2000) has developed a water conflict chronology in which he categorizes the conflicts as the following: control of water resources, military tool, political tool, terrorism, military target, and development disputes. Terrorism is defined as, "water resources, or water systems, are either targets or tools of violence or coercion by nonstate actors." There are many historical conflicts that caused flooding by diversion or eliminated water supplies by building dams or other structures, whereas in the following only a few examples of some of the water conflicts that included water supply systems are summarized.
