We’re good,Rusty—thank you!
While you were focused on the pandemic, Israel approved a pipeline to supply Europe with natural gas
Israel now is pumping natural gas from one of the enormous offshore fields which will transform Israel into an energy-independent nation and a global energy powerhouse….
Natural gas from the offshore Tamar field was pumped to Israeli shores for the first time Saturday, four years after its discovery, in preparation for its first use in the Israeli energy market — a move that could transform the Israeli economy.
The Tamar deposit, discovered in 2009 some 90 kilometers west of Haifa, holds an estimated 8.5 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
Israel’s new offshore fields are enormous, which is part of the reason Turkey has been so belligerent….
The Israeli government on Sunday approved an agreement with European countries for the construction of a subsea pipeline that would supply Europe with natural gas from the eastern Mediterranean.
The Eastmed pipeline, which has been in planning for several years, is meant to transport gas from offshore Israel and Cyprus to Greece and on to Italy. A deal to build the project that was signed in January between Greek, Cypriot and Israeli ministers had still required final approval in Israel.
The countries aim to reach a final investment decision by 2022 and have the 6 billion euro ($6.86 billion) pipeline completed by 2025 to help Europe diversify its energy resources….
The pipeline is planned to initially carry 10 billion cubic meters of gas a year with the possibility of eventually doubling the capacity.
You know who’s still not happy? The madman of Turkey.
The Wall Street Journal reports:
The contest over newfound gas riches in the Eastern Mediterranean has triggered a slew of rival maritime claims, pushing the region’s main powers—all of them America’s partners or allies—toward open confrontation.
On one side is a budding alliance of Greece, Israel, Cyprus and Egypt that benefits from the recent finds. On another is the Eastern Mediterranean’s biggest economy, Turkey, which is increasingly flexing its military muscles as it seeks to break its regional isolation….
The EastMed pipeline planned by Israel, Cyprus, Greece and Italy would carry this gas to European consumers—except that Turkey’s recent maritime claims cross its route. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has already said that EastMed won’t go ahead without his assent.

It’s hard to believe in 2013 on this TV show there was a massive outbreak of #Coronavirus. It’s even more shocking that #Hydroxychloroquine was the drug that save the day.

Just got this on my NV board.
Could be why our airport looks like gangsters and a ghetto.
Our little town (Gardnerville/Minden) is expecting a BLM protest on Saturday. They are coming to protest our local Sheriff.
Sheriff is a good guy but he didn’t like that our local library board wanted to vote to support Black Lives Matter and defunding the police.
He sent them a letter and at the bottom wrote “good luck getting police to respond when you call 911”.
BLM has put the word out to ‘burn the Sheriff’s building to the ground”.
We have no idea if there will be 20 or 200 of them showing up but our town is ready and armed to the teeth.
Anyone that wants to have a little ‘fun’,come on out and join us!”
Gold and silver taking off today:
Gold: $ 2,003/oz.
Silver $ 25.72/oz.
