BINGO TO ME! Though it was not hard at this point, just google Tony Blair and BG: Estimated at a total of 1.4 trillion cubic feet, the market value of the reserves is about $4 billion. On 8th November 1999, the late Yasser Arafat signed a 25-year deal on behalf of the PA, granting 60 per cent rights to BG Group, 30 per cent to Consolidated Contractors Company - a Palestinian private entity linked to Arafat’s PA - and finally only 10 per cent to the PA’s Palestine Investment Fund (PIF). At first, BG Group signed a memorandum with Egypt to sell them Gaza’s gas through an undersea pipeline in 2005. But the ’man of peace’, former Prime Minister Tony Blair - official Middle East envoy of the Quartet - intervened to pressure BG Group to instead sell the gas to Israel. By our journalistic hero of the hour, Nafeez Ahmed, sacked by The Guardian in a very dark moment in their history, for reporting out this extremely important story. This is an internal diplomatic journal so the most solid kind of source. mondediplo/blogs/israel-s-war-for-gaza-s-gas
