2. Exporting oil and water is a wonderful way for Israel...
Robert ,   USA   (02.19.14)
to make peace with her neighbors and make a few bucks in the process.
3. Thrives

Thrives Israel and don't give away your land for nothing and build your cities. Sell to them for highest price.
4. Smart Israelis
David ,   On this planet   (02.19.14)
Where will your gas pipe run to Jordan . I guess across the Palestinian Judea and Samaria that you wish to give away
5. arabs turning to israel for gas
zionist forever   (02.19.14)
How the tables have turned if we have arab countries turning to Israel to supply them with gas when traditionally Israel was the one begging for people to sell it gas.
6. BDS fail...big time

7. Can't wait
Mike ,   NZ   (02.19.14)
Can't wait for the Turks to come begging !!
8. #4 More likely across the Judea and Samaria that Israel
A ,   Belgium   (02.19.14)
will annex, while sending the illegal arab squatters across the river to their "palestine".
9. To#6

You are absolutely correct. 1.2 billion with the Palestinians, 500 million with Jordan is only the beginning. Israel's Asian trade will vastly increase in the future. Sooner or later the Europeans will probably buy Israel's gas. So much for BDS. Welcome to reality. Israel will not need Europe in the future. The world is changing.
10. To: No. 4
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.02.14)
Nope. Israel has contracted to build movable LNG platforms in the Med. The natural gas will be taken by LNG carrier to Aqaba. Nothing goes overland. Much safer, much cheaper.
11. Yet another loss for the BDS crowd
Mordechai   (03.02.14)
It doesn't look like anyone even the Arab world seems all that interested in boycotting Israel. Every day its a new story with more foreign trade and investment. I guess thats why its so easy to get a high paying job here.
