Toole, it doesn't seem likely that Israel is "coveting" the natural gas off the Gaza coast, since, according to an article in Haaretz, Israel gave the natural gas field to the Palestinians in 2000.

In fact, the article claims that military action in Gaza was delayed in order not to scuttle the deal between Israel and British Gas for Israel to purchase the gas.

Here is the link to that story:
