Description
Gas Could Be the Game-Changer The discovery of huge natural gas deposits in the eastern Mediterranean off Israel, and the possibility that Lebanon, Syria and the Gaza Strip may also have substantial offshore riches as well, has added a potentially explosive dimension to the already complex crisis in the Middle East. The gas finds, which may turn out to be even larger than current estimates, are "nothing short of a geopolitical game-changer," says Gal Luft, executive director of the US-based Institute for the Analysis of Global Security. "Altogether the basin the eastern Mediterranean ... could contain an amount of gas equivalent to one-fifth of US natural gas reserves."
