Same way they get it from the Golan Heights in Syria... See first post...
Within the golan heights is lake kinneret, which supplies significant amounts of israeli water. Iraq is far from israel, and there is no convenient, inexpensive way to transfer any water over.
Along with the fact that it would be prohibitively expensive to do so, when there are far cheaper sources of large quantities of water, from say turkey.
Iraq , with the region’s most abundant water resources, was out of the question as an Israeli source of water prior to the Iraq war. Israel for reasons that include and extend beyond water, hopes that the U.S. will be successful in pacifying Iraq.
Control of Iraq’s rivers could alter the destiny of the Middle East for decades. While the Bush administration fears that Americans will not support fighting a war to control Iraq’s water, Americans deserve to know the truth. The truth is that in addition to oil, water is a real reason for the invasion of Iraq.
Any chance you plan on answering the question of how israel will physically transfer water from iraq, or are you just here to spout anti-jew conspiracy nonsense and troll like an imbecile?

For the record... Not Anti-Jew... Your answer is in my previous post...
De-salinized water cannot be used for agriculture or drinking water... It can only be used for industrial purposes...
not it is not
Water is desalinated in order to convert salt water to fresh water so it is suitable for human consumption or irrigation. Sometimes the process produces table salt as a by-product. Desalination is used on many seagoing ships and submarines.
Most of the modern interest in desalination is focused on developing cost-effective ways of providing fresh water for human use in regions where the availability of fresh water is, or is becoming, limited.

Israel illegally occupies the Golan Heights which it seizes from Syria. This area goes on to provide Israel with one third of its fresh water...........
Syria lost the Golan Heights when they were defeated in war. It is not an illegal occupation.
Apparently the OP completely ignores the fact that Israel uses desalinization plants to supplement its water needs. Or does the OP support genocide by shutting off all water to Israel?
When all of the current and planned desalination plants become fully operational, Israel will produce about 700 mcm per year.
There are three desalination plants currently in operation: Palmahim (45 mcm), Ashkelon (110 mcm) and Hadera (127 mcm). The two in the Sorek region would add 300 mcm, and one more to be built in Ashdod would add another roughly 100 mcm.
Total current household water consumption is about 750 mcm, so 700 mcm of desalinated water would represent a tremendous influx.

The Epitome of Trolling.
You've responded to 5 posts directly asking you a question, and the same response is repeated to search for another post in the thread - which when discovered provides nothing.
TROLL. FAIL.
