The battle of Gaza and gas... and Al Ain on the eastern Mediterranean





The gas battle has begun... engineering the eastern Mediterranean from the port of Beirut to the port of Gaza
March 10, 2024 -
(See translation in Arabic section)
The story began 400 years ago with the East India Company. The equation of influence has not changed, and proxy war is the title of the conflict taking place today in the Palestinian Gaza Strip. The battle is in Gaza and Al-Ain in the eastern Mediterranean. But before that, as David Ben-Gurion said in 1957, “To ensure Israel’s survival, we must destroy Egypt, Syria, and Iraq.” It was the Greater Middle East Project, which established the direct American presence in Iraq, and after a decade the “Arab Spring” project emerged. As in the case of Iraq, the project was founded in Afghanistan, and thus the “Arab Spring” was founded in Sudan, to besiege Egypt from Sudan, Libya, and occupied Palestine. .
Today, the war on Gaza is only a prelude to complete control over three countries, which are the pillars of the “Eastern Mediterranean,” and indeed, they are the “energy pillars” of the world, and through them global trade lines pass and connect the seas and businesses.
If the three Gulf countries were the focus of negotiations and a pillar in the shipping, transport and energy system, then their movement from the Gulf to the Eastern Mediterranean constituted a challenge and a priority, as there were mobile confrontations, media wars, the collapse of national currencies, and the disintegration of economies. Class and intellectual transformations paved the way for political transformations, as 3 countries (Egypt, Syria, and Iraq) became leaders in the Arab world, and moved to become marginal countries in the “Greater Eastern Mediterranean,” which is the entrance to the continent of Asia, and the link to the continent of Africa.
Internal issues have become a priority, from the crisis of the transfer of power to competition for positions, all the way to obtaining financial and economic gains, at a time when the deeply comprehensive view of the nature of the conflict has ended.
The gas battle has begun... from Kiryat Shmona to Eilat
On October 29, three weeks after “Operation Al-Aqsa Flood,” the Israeli government agreed to award an Italian company to the Gaza gas field “Marine 1” and “Marine 2,” which was discovered in the year 2000 and whose reserves are estimated at about one trillion cubic feet of natural gas. Although ownership of the well belongs to the Palestinian people in accordance with the provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 1982, which the State of Palestine signed in 2019.
Talking about gas fields in the eastern Mediterranean confirms the role of the American-Israeli mediator Hochstein in arranging the energy reserves in the eastern Mediterranean by sea. What is certain is that the problem of the West Bank in the coming days will not be an issue of the rights of the people of its land, but rather the building of extremist settlements to protect looted Palestinian wealth starting from “ Gonen (Lake Hula) is a gas well producing for the entity, all the way to oil wells in Rantis and Ramallah in the West Bank, since 2010, to “Zohar - Kidud - Hakanayim” northwest of the Dead Sea, which are productive fields discovered since 1961.
We follow the census of oil and gas wells extending along the “Kiryat Shmona-Eilat” line from Beit Shean to Bethlehem and Beit Jibrin in Hebron, all the way to Dimona and Gorim in the occupied northern Negev, passing through Zok Tamrur in Beersheba.
As for the fields that produce gas and oil for the entity, they are in the “Gaza Envelope” area, from the north from Ashdod 1976 to Shikma-Nagva (Ashkelon) 1960 and east from Kochav 1962 (5 producing wells out of 13 wells) to Heiltz in northeastern Gaza in 1955 (product 3 while discovered 18). a well)
International law also prohibits the occupying authority from disposing of the natural resources found in the lands it occupies, including the adjacent marine areas. What is certain is that ending the Palestinian issue through the displacement of the Palestinian people, the crimes against humanity that are committed, and the rejection of the right of return leads to the “sea corridor between Gaza and Cyprus” project. As if it were “the ship project that Kissinger talked about four decades ago to transport Christians from Lebanon to settle another people.”
The Russian presence in 2015 ended the sea gas pipeline project to Europe. With the European Union’s decision to expand strategically in the Eastern Mediterranean by including Greek Cyprus to the group in 2004, which became the head of the bridge in the Eastern Mediterranean and was forced to leave it 7 decades ago, Britain left the European group to begin the project to acquire energy sources in the Eastern Mediterranean, a new title for the Eastern issue. The rapprochement between Egypt and Turkey, the third of which is “Israel,” and their separation from the “Israeli” entity played a role in raising the level of the conflict.
With the Russian presence on the banks of the Mediterranean, the energy struggle began, from Ukraine and the balances of the Black Sea to Palestine, Lebanon, and the balances of the eastern Mediterranean, all the way to Yemen and the understandings on the corridors and international trade through the Red Sea.
The struggle for resources, pipelines and prices is managed by companies and fueled by people. As happened 400 ago with the East India Company, it is happening today with oil and gas companies, port management and real estate development, between building advanced modern smart cities and destroying ancient, historical and authentic cities. The war of British-American companies continues, the port of Gaza. A bridgehead, and the guardian of prosperity, “Ras Al-Hikma” near the “Russian” Dabaa reactor in Egypt.
