Have you ever wondered what is actually behind Israel's ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people? After all, if Israel was the land of God's true 'chosen people,' there would be eternal peace in that region, at least by Christian standards, wouldn't there?  Why exactly do the Israelis need all of Palestine's land when the boundaries between Israel and Palestine were clearly established long ago under the United Nations' Partition Plan.

"Thousands gathered across Israel in protest to speak out against PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s natural gas deal with US energy giant Noble Energy. The deal is likely to receive approval shortly, but critics describe it as “the great gas robbery." .... "Demonstrators waved Israeli flags and carried signs reading “Gas theft,” while chanting slogans such as “This is our gas.”"  (Source: Russia Today, Nov 8, 2015)

"OUR GAS?!"

Not really, according to many around the world including the Centre for Research on Globalization who points out that the gas..."our gas"...in question really belongs to the Palestinians, and was recently stolen by Israel as part of Operation Cast Lead (2007), [and its more recent Operation Protective Edge (2014), which both] led to Isreal's confiscation of Palestinian gas fields in violation of international law."  The area seized included Leviathan...the natural gas field in question.

Behind the Israeli government stands the U.S. multi-national corporation Nobel Gas and the U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry.  Together, these entities, along with the Israeli government, have inked a multi-billion dollar deal that  "which gives Israel the capacity to “use its position to achieve strategic aims.""

So, what are Israel's "strategic aims?"

While the Israelis claim that Iran is out to get them, it is Israel who is, in fact, out to steal from Iran the same types of resources they've stolen from the Palestinians, and then exterminate their people in the process.  The Israelis have no allegiance to the United States whatsoever, despite the "aid" that the U.S. has been steadily funneling to them over the years. The Israelis 'roll their eyes' and secretly mock the Americans for our gullibility.

Saudi Arabia is Israel's puppet.  And, the Saudis aren't the 'sharpest tools in the shed,' either when it comes to Israel's true aims!  There is much speculation about the size and influence of Israel's secret army in Middle East terrorism activities.  However, there is really no need for the Israelis to be more active when it comes to such secret operations, mostly because Israel allows the Saudis to do their dirty work through al Nusra, al Quaeda and other covert armies.  This strategy of Israel is slowly bleeding the Saudis dry. Unfortunately for the Israelis, it will be the Iranians who quietly steal control over the Saudis from behind the scenes.

Israel's imperialistic aims are being subdued by the Russians who are establishing their a stronger military presence in Israel's immediate neighbor country, Syria.  In particular, Russia will maintain a full naval fleet off of Syria's coast, which sits adjacent to the (stolen) Israeli Leviathan gas fields off the cost of Israel/Palestine. This gives Russia, and its allies an opportunity to insert themselves in to the gas deal between Israel and Jordan. After all, how will all that natural gas be transported between these two countries without crossing Russian-controlled waters or land?

The bottom line is, this is all about imperialism. Whether you're Israeli, American, a Saudi, Iranian or Russian, control of energy is the key to your own country's prosperity and protection against those who seek to destroy and control.
