| More Egyptian tumbrels: former energy minister detained over Israel gas deal |
| 2011-04-22 |
| Ex-minister and five assistants accused of graft and profiteering by granting Israel extraordinarily favourable terms. Israel points out they're paying more than any other of Egypt's customers. Egypt now reviewing all natural gas contracts, hopes to boost government's income by US$ 3-4 billion. |

| #2 ZNG (Zionist Natural Gas) would be un-Islamic. Better to sit in beturbanned squalor than to use it. |

| #1 Pfft, that's a wasting asset. Aren't the Israelis sitting on tens of trillions of cubic feet of gas, that they're in the process of drilling out? In five years, you'll be wanting to import *from* Israel, you idiots. |
