I broadly agree with you, but would point out that the conflict isn’t necessarily limited to Gaza. There’ve been rockets flying back and forth across the Lebanese border, sporadic violence in the West Bank, and there’s always tension over the Golan Heights. Israel could find itself fighting a multi-front war against Hamas in Gaza, Lebanon/Hezbollah in the north west, Syria in the north east and Jordan in the east.

Not to mention Egypt aren’t exactly their best buds either, and a US warship recently intercepted missiles coming towards Israel from Houthi rebels in Yemen.

They have to clean up their grid, which unfortunately isn’t happening at the moment. They’re building new coal plants.

Well, that’s not ideal, but the oil and gas platforms have to be powered by something. They’ll exist either way, but without these turbines they’d be powered by oil and gas.

Power demand is power demand. If we get all precious about who can use our wind power, they’re not just gonna go “ok, I guess we’ll shut down these oil rigs” 🤷‍♂️
