Same thing could happen here in the Haifa bay area petro chemical plant and thousands of lives would be in peril! Son't you think something should be done to further inspect these planst making them up to code, or better yet move them to areas where noone lives!

It's time you left your land in what you silly boys and girls call ... What is it? Oh, Judea and Samaria, what quaint names. And leave Judea and Samaria to the poor Palestinians. Such nice folk. True, they have no idea how to govern themselves, but they'll learn. I know they'll learn, just like the Iraqis and the Afghans. It may take a little while, maybe a few centuries, but they'll learn. In the meantime, you kids get a few more guns with the money that we generously provided for you, and protect yourselves. Whatever is left after the withdrawals...hee hee... In the meantime I'm going to check all those job offers I have for post-Bush time. Hmm... some of them are financed by my very dear friends the Saudis.... Oh, what a lovely income.... and those perks... But you know, kids, I'm an idealistic woman. I'd settle for nothing less than the presidency next time around. And that Arab gratitude will come in handy when I need it. Now, run along kids, and get busy packing!! The Poor Palestinians are waiting!

there will be built more and more of such time bombs. Such is the "vision'' of our politicians, when they speak about the development of the Negev....

((residents of the nearby Bedouin town were evacuated)) Ramat Hovav industrial zone in 1975, approximately 12 kilometers south of Beersheba. The rationale behind the decision was to concentrate the heavy chemical industry of Israel's southern region at a single site, distant from populated areas.
