The Israeli newspaper Haaretz is reporting that U.S. and Israel are looking into the possibility of reconstructing an old oil pipeline to transport oil from Iraq to Israeli refineries in Haifa. The pipeline was last used in 1948. Haaretz reports Israel Prime Minister Ariel Sharon sees the reopening of the pipeline as a possible “bonus” for Israel’s support of the U.S. during the Iraq invasion.
