A terrifying thought, remembering that it's the Gazans who have expertise in digging. Also, sewage ponds flooding the surrounding landscape.

to help Paleostinian economy.

The Paleostinian Authority has announced plans to explore for oil in the West Bank, throwing a new element of uncertainty into troubled US-backed peace efforts.

Mohammed Mustafa, deputy prime minister for economic affairs, said Tuesday the Paleostinians were seeking proposals from international firms to help explore and develop oil in the northern West Bank. However,

there was no word on whether Israel has agreed to the plan.

Mustafa told The News Agency that Dare Not be Named that the project was among a series of initiatives drawn up by Mideast envoy Tony Blair and US Secretary of State John Kerry to help develop the Paleostinian economy.

The exploration area covers more than 400 square kilometers (155 square miles), mostly in areas under full Israeli control.

There was no immediate comment from Israel or Blair's office.

#2  Do they know this requires vertical digging; not the traditional horizontal digging? I am sure this is just a ploy to get better digging equipment.

#1  First, the Palestinians can't manufacture their own ball point pens. Second, there isn't any Oil. And thirdly Oil would definitely start a war for even a small amount. Not to worry. Its a Joke.

The Palestinians want something for nothing.They don't like to work for anything. They never have. If they did find Oil AND could get to it and claim it, they would just start killing EACH OTHER over it and steal it from one another. Or both. Probably both. They are a garbage people with envious and rotten genetics.
