THE TAMAR PLATFORM, Israel — Alarms rang out across the Tamar natural gas platform off the coast of Israel.

以色列外海的塔瑪爾天然氣開採平台響起警報。

The Israeli N avy had detected signs that a rocket might have been fired by Hamas from the shores of Gaza. As a voice over the loudspeaker warned to take cover, the crew raced up the metal stairs to a small gym that doubles as an air raid shelter. It turned out to be a false alarm.

以國海軍察覺,哈瑪斯可能已自加薩沿岸發射一枚火箭。擴音器警告平台全體工作人員尋求掩護;他們迅速登上金屬階梯,進入兼作空襲掩體的小型健身房。結果這是虛驚一場。

Natural gas is both a geopolitical tool and a target in Israel, where a newfound bonanza of resources has the potential to improve ties with energy-hungry Egypt, Jordan and even the Palestinian Authority. But the key to this diplomatic push is not an Israeli official, a Middle Eastern king or an American ambassador. It is an oil company in Texas.
