Israelis Building Dry Canal
Israelis pour millions into Elath to build a dry Suez route with rail highway and oil pipeline through the Negev. They project multi million ton cargo, bulk, and oil shipments to Europe, but face Western liner reluctance and financial risk. Elath offers deep harbor, rapid unloading and overland pumping, potentially cutting oil costs 50 to 65 percent and undercut Suez politics. Capt Enrico Levi notes Elath as the only alternate route to Europe if Suez is blocked.
