Israel is so small, that she is forced to store critical energy stores at sea. How exactly do Peres, Livni, Herzog and their supporters think Israel will survive if she surrenders Judea and Samaria to become even smaller? It becomes increasingly clear that to be a Leftist you must be incredible corrupt or insane.
2. Meanwhile ICE is emitting toxic fumes
Alexander Scheiner ,   Israel   (01.31.14)
From where we live we can see the huge yellow-brown smoke fumes the stacks are emitting practically daily. The fumes are toxic and dangerous namely to children. I understand that ICE does not care about ecology and health of citizens. And our government is scared to anger ICE.
3. Unacceptable to leave the gas reverse sitting target for ter
Zionist forever   (02.02.14)
The back up gas supplies are to important to leave in a buoy, all it takes is a single well placed rocket and he countries entire gas reserve goes up in smoke and terrorists have no interest in what flag it's flying to the its Israel's gas reserve. The navy cannot stop multiple rocket fire at a sitting target. What happens if the ports are damaged so the ship is unable to dock? The gas should be kept in a hardened underground facility so it's not vulnerable to rocket fire and it's hidden. Perhaps a disused IDF base could be converted to have some kind of underground storage tank If they want to have it stored at sea then it should be outside Israel territorial waters and far from terrorists. Might take a little longer to ship the gas to Israel in an emergency but the gas would be safe beyond the reach of terrorists or even Iranian missiles.

don't worry about israel, boychik. she can take care of her assets beautifully. a 9/11 won't ever happen in israel but it did in the usa....and it will again and again. israelis are way too smart and do profile and americans are not. too politically correct and naive compared to the bright vigilant and non politically correct jew boys in israel.
