Hamas should remake that scene from Game of Thrones, except instead of using catapults to fling the shackles over the wall at the slaves they should blast foreskins across Tel Aviv (they've probably hit at least a few of israel's strategic foreskin stockpiles).

The Trans-Israeli Oil Pipeline facilitates the transportation of 1.6 Million barrels of oil per day. It may now become caught in the crossfire of the Battle of Zikim in northern Gaza.

doesn't look like it's a major supply route, might just be blaming Hamas for energy market disruption
https://asiatimes.com/2021/06/the-pipeline-that-brings-israel-and-uae-together/that particular pipeline was meant to get Iranian oil from the Gulf to the Mediterranean but sat idle for a while after the Shah got kicked out and Iran stopped recognising israel as a state. now it does the same for the UAE but the transit volumes were never huge and both Saudi Arabia and Qatar have broken off the 'normalisation of relations' with israel, further threatening to cut them out of the oil market entirely. UAE's not likely to break with its OPEC buddies in that regard

Why build a pipeline through Jedi territory when you can build another one going through Sunni Muslim territory in Türkiye, straight across the Bosporus and into Europe. The Trans-Israeli line can either do that or go across the Mediterranean, it seems.
Also Alexandria is another great point for an oil line across the Mediterranean, Alexander the great connected the Indian ocean to the Mediterranean by founding this city millennia ago. Could still be viable today, A line from Saudi Arabia across the red sea and through Alexandria.

yeah I think back when this was built the bulk of oil and gas from the gulf states started (via tanker) in the Gulf, followed around to the Red Sea then crossed through the Suez Canal into the Mediterranean. the Suez Canal at the time was a bottleneck that justified the cost of building new infrastructure.
since then there have been a lot of alternatives built; high volume pipelines are a lot cheaper than sea transit so they try to keep shipping to a minimum. if you're interested Pepe Escobar's book Globalistan is a good look at how pipelines and energy transit have been the driver for the vast majority of wars in the last century

Seems I read awhile back they found a large oil or gas field in that part of the Med. Maybe the jedis don't want to share with the goy, that extension from the coast could be worth a lot of shekels.
