The TAPLINE: Israel Finds its Niche

 ARAMCO built the TAP oil line between the  pumping stations in Saudia and the port of Haifa, bypassing the expensive maritime route of the Suez Canal. For a hundred years, a TAPline lays unused because political instability of the Middle East. Now, the United States, after a generation of wars has quieted down the area and the TAPline, that never died, is being revived.

Israel, Egypt and Greece are building a gas line to Europe. If the two systems are joined, we have complete secure energy supply to Europe. The loser will be Russia, that will be outpriced from the European market. The winner will be America, having its fingers holding the energy aorta of Europe. Israel will realize its foundational dream of integrating itself into the British (now American) global economic system. BTW, all the troubles of Argentina started when it lost its position as food supplier within the British "imperialist" system.  Till now it cannot find a place in the new system. 

 I am reading secret English reports on the perspectives of the Jews in Eretz Israel after the Mandate. The tone is arrogant even antisemitic. The Jews live from donations and have zero fighting inclination and skill. They did not gave us a year.
