Europe Continues to Import Israeli Gas Amid Genocide in Gaza

On December 17, a Dutch nonprofit organization dedicated to corporate accountability, SOMO, published a study of Israel’s energy sector amid the ongoing Israeli genocide in the Gaza Strip. Since Palestinian militants attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, Israeli forces have killed more than 46,000 Palestinians, including 17,000 children, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, as cited by Al Jazeera. The true toll of the genocide — obscured by continued Israeli attacks, blockade and propaganda — may top 330,000 deaths by the end of the year, per estimates published in The Guardian.

    Yeah, we can’t import from Russia because they’re killing civilians in an unjustified war. But Israel…. Hey wait a minute.

    Just one of the many reasons behind the genocide and ethnic cleansing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_gas_in_the_Gaza_Strip

    I’m starting to think using fossil fuel, and having a strong dependency on other countries for energy supply, may not be a good idea after all.

    More than only gas. Europe is mass buying Israeli weapons to fund the genocide.

    Note that those weapons are rarely made in Israel. Manufacturing is done in the US or Europe. Israel only designs and tests the weapons on their human test subjects in the concentration camp.

        Thanks. I was sorta surprised israel had natural gas and the article you link at least does indicate it comes from offshore rigs so bascially from the mediteranian. Makes me wonder how unique its position is and how many other countries get gas from the meditaranian given how many countries border it.
