should involve all the countries in the region, including Egypt, Lebanon, Israel, all parts of the island of Cyprus and Turkey…

Can you say "Redistribution" or Spread The Wealth" or maybe just "Social Justice," I am all for wishful thinking.

None of these countries have the public or private industrial know how in the petro and natural gas industries.

All of these countries, and especially Turkey, are well aware of the insanity revolving around the Caspian pipeline routes. All are aware of the Kosovo civil war to control the next leg of the Bosphorus pipeline routes heading west.

None of these countries will give up control to US, Swiss, Brit, Dutch, Norwegian, Chinese or Russian conglomerates/banker mafias.

Will the countries with the extraction fields get blackmailed b the pipeline countries like Ukraine tried with Russia? Or will Egypt, Israel and Lebanon take control of the pipelines like Russia did to Belorus?

That is for the next generation of leadership to fight over.

First get the dang thing built.
