Egypt: Gas Deals Purely Commercial, Not Genocide-Adjacent
While Gaza burns and the ICJ investigates genocide accusations, Egypt's government is busy assuring us that their massive new gas deal with Netanyahu’s regime is, indeed, 'purely commercial.' This convenient amnesia overlooks the fact that Israel's gas exports, now funneled through Egypt, generate vital revenue that helps sustain its military operations, as Al Jazeera themselves reports . One
might wonder if the 'commercial' negotiations included a discount for the ethical gymnastics involved. It’s a classic move: declare business as usual while the walls of Gaza crumble. Egypt’s commitment to 'stability' (and fat energy contracts) seems to heavily outweigh any concern for the human rights travesty unfolding next door. When billions are on the line, principles often take a backseat to
profits, a spectacle the mainstream media is all too happy to sanitize as 'economic partnership.'
