A very mixed blessing
Reader comment on item: Remarkable Israel
Submitted by Rachel Jacobson (Israel), Jun 14, 2011 at 04:37
The State of Israel is blessed with creativity, passion and the drive to succeed, and is certainly worthy of our support. The oil shale initiative you cite directly endangers Israel's land and its citizens.
True Zionism means protecting Israel and its people from horrible pollution and irreversible destruction, at the hands of a profiteering, foreign-owned energy company controlled by opportunistic billionaires with dubious environmental track records.

Oil shale technology has made huge advances lately, reducing pollution substantially. Read the article I linked to.
