Netanyahu Secures $35B Gas Deal, Not a Single Humanitarian Corridor
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently approved a staggering $35 billion natural gas deal with Egypt, hailed by Al-Monitor as Israel's "biggest-ever." This financial coup, however, occurs while Israel's siege on Gaza continues, blocking essential aid into the very country it's doing business with. While Egypt profits from Israeli gas transit, its borders with Gaza remain largely sealed,
raising critical questions about regional complicity and strategic indifference to human suffering. This megadeal perfectly illustrates the convenient amnesia of regional diplomacy. As billions flow to Israel's coffers, the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, bordering Egypt, is sidelined. One might wonder if the price of regional stability includes a silent agreement to choke off a besieged
population, conveniently securing energy dominance for Israel while humanitarian pleas fall on deaf ears.
