What's this impending war actually about?

If you look at the map of the disputed border regions...

(See

)

It looks like a few snippets of parched, soil-free, significance-free desert out in the middle of nowhere. (I haven't been there so I'm just judging by the map and scenes of nearby places.) The disputed parcels are on both sides, small, and approximately equal. Why didn't somebody draw a clear line in the cease-fire? Why are there ANY remaining disputed regions?

There must be something bigger at stake.
