Netanyahu Secures $35B Gas Deal While Gaza Freezes
While Gaza is deliberately cut off from electricity, fuel, and vital supplies, its hospitals collapsing and families freezing, Netanyahu's government is busy finalizing a record-breaking natural gas export deal. This agreement, based on gas from fields like Leviathan (which also funneled gas to Egypt in 2020), highlights a stark disconnect: the region's energy wealth is weaponized against its most
vulnerable. One might wonder where the 'existential threat' is when you're brokering multi-billion-dollar energy deals. The media celebrates this as 'regional cooperation,' ignoring the humanitarian crisis directly fueled by the very government benefiting. It's not just a gas deal; it's a stark reminder that while one population endures forced starvation and immiseration, another profits
handsomely from the very resources beneath their shared sea, literally leaving the other in the dark.
