I got this message from another forum, and I thought it might garner some interesting views from members at GF.
Thoughts?Israel has expanded several times since its heroic founding in 1948 (the same year 1984 was written by George Orwell).
Around Israel are some of the richest oil fields in the world, and Israel's allies are currently occupying and attacking a few of these Israeli neighbors, as is Israel.
In your opinion, will Israel one day control enough oil production that it will no longer need aid money from the USA to finance its many operations?
