Cosaxteacher has a point, there is such technology and it is being used heavily in the Middle East, but that doesn't mean it won't be a problem. The water extracted with this technology is very expensive, which means eventually the majority in any affected nations will be denied water more than usual, which will be the excuse for fighting. And, yes, as fresh water becomes more scarce especially in the developing world, it will become a reason for fighting. Then, some damned do-gooder will get us involved in a fight that DOESN'T affect our national interests.

Rotary International is already working to see that everyone on the planet has fresh water. Since we've beaten Polio around the world, this is our next global project. Seriously doubt it would ever come to blows over it because sources are so varied and plentiful. That's why we refer to Earth as the "Water Planet"--

Oil. We are doing it right now... Water just a little bit, but maybe not in the next few hundred years when the ecosystem really goes crazy

potable water is already a valueable item in many places and as such may some day become the cause of war. there has been small scale conflicts already ut so far all have been local and below the radar of most of the world.

Wrong, because there are still plenty of fresh water supplies, and the technology is out there to convert salt water into fresh water, and even convert waste water (water from a shower, urine, etc) into fresh water.

Land will be next, water could be part of which land is fought over.
(Assuming we survive the war for oil)
