GOD to ISRAEL : I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you. Why is the US so blessed as a country? Sole remaining superpower, olympic medals aplenty, a "world" country in fact(home to all ethnic peoples): we have stood by israel since its inception. The old USSR had fences with tops bent inward, to keep their people IN; GWB just took a leaf from israel today and signed the fence bill, to keep people OUT. I must be part jewish, private note to follow.

"It is an encouraging sign," Benyamin Ben-Eliezer told the Jerusalem Post. "We are checking the entire area and we are opening the whole region for drilling. We will give our full support to any company that wants to try."

Compared with the oil fields of Venezuela and Saudi Arabia, the discovery near the Dead Sea is quite small. But it marks a significant deposit of oil and natural gas for Israel, which has been lured in the past by the potential of oil deposits off the coast of Gaza and elsewhere, only to find relatively dry hole
