As for Israel—they'll do just fine no matter what. While Americans painfully adjust to price increases brought on by $5 to $10 per gallon gasoline, the Israelis will find a negligible decrease in their standard of living. Thanks to a 1975 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), the United States government is obligated to satisfy all of Israel's oil needs in the event of crisis, even if it causes domes...tic shortages to the American people. This little known legislation is renewed every five years, and commits $3 billion taxpayer dollars to maintain a strategic U.S. reserve for Israel. The U.S. government also guarantees delivery of oil in U.S. tankers if commercial shippers become unable or unwilling to carry oil from the USA to Israel.

Israel settlers are now trying to market Palestine's most famous symbol -- the olive tree and its oil -- as theirs.

Hummus and falafel are already "Israeli." Now they're coming for Palestine's olive oil too

Israel does not want a Palestinian state. Period. — Israeli Occupation

History shows that all Israeli governments — "Left" or "Right" alike — prefer violent Palestinian resistance to the Occupation over any non-violent protest because it provides Israel the best possible excuse to do what it knows and does best: attack and destroy Palestinian population centers, national infrastructure, agricultural and industrial employment centers — bring about as much destruction so as to crush Palestinian society, push back reconciliation and continue the land colonization process in order to make a Palestinian state physically and geographically impossible.

The experience of Gaza and the Second Intifada provide ample evidence to this assessment. One can only hope that the Third Intifada will be sophisticated enough, and very obviously non-violent, in order not to provide Israel with easy excuses.

This is also why Israel is at such a loss now on how to deal with the legitimate Palestinian demand for statehood, scrambling to deal with global pressure on the UN frontier: if it could only launch a missile-equipped drone to solve it all...
