Business Insider: Syria and Iraq are awash with Russian, Iranian, and Chinese weapons
As ISIS first blitzed across northern Iraq in June 2014, the militants seized large quantities of US arms and vehicles from the fleeing Iraqi forces.
Over the almost past year of fighting, however, ISIS has gone from fielding large quantities of US weapons to using a mixture of Iranian, Chinese, Russian, Soviet, and Sudanese ammunition.
According to a fact sheet from the Forum on Arms Trade, citing the Conflict Armament Research (CAR) and the Small Arms Survey, ISIS was largely able to acquire this ammunition from the constantly shifting battle lines of the Syrian civil war.

All the potable water you want, if you have desalinization plants powered by fusion reactors. They are getting closer. The closer to the equator people could use solar plants to operate desalination plants on at least a small scale.
Like they say drought is natural, famine is man made.
If there is a water shortage, it is due to conflict.
Then what is it that they are all doing there?
