Vast oil reserves have been discovered in Israel that could transform the country into world energy power and change the face of the Middle East for years to come.
Afek Oil and Gas, an Israeli subsidiary of the U.S. company Genie Energy, said the breakthrough came in the Golan Heights, near the border with Syria.
Yuval Bartov, the firm's chief geologist, said there was 'enormous excitement' about the immense wealth it could bring to the Jewish state, which has long yearned for its own resource of 'black gold'.



quote:

'We are talking about a strata which is 350 metres thick and what is important is the thickness and the porosity.
'On average in the world, strata are 20-30 metres thick, so this is ten times as large as that, so we are talking about significant quantities.'

Awesome. Isreal pumps the oil and sells it to us and we pull our troops out of the rest of the middle east.

Scenario: The Middle East gangs up on Israel to take their newly found oil. The United States intervenes, which brings Russia into the conflict as well. Europe begins choosing sides. Hilarity does not ensue. World War 3 takes place. World ends.

Now that Israel will join world leaders in oil reserves, I'm confident the rest of the ME will leave them alone.

Are you suggesting we're never going to run out of petroleum?

China shuts Russia up. Hard. We annihilate the forces advancing on the middle east.

People act like Isreal couldn't destroy any opposition. They have just as bad arse a military and no restrictions on SJW to tell them not to use it.
