I've Been Thinking:

Israel's cabinet has approved a plan to explore building islands off the coast of Israel. It is a brilliant idea.

The purpose of the islands will be to house infrastructure industry like water purification, electricity generation and fuel refineries. These islands will open large plots of land that until now have been restricted for public works.

Israel needs to make certain that the islands are defensible and that they remain stable. These are not simply factories, they are essential components of Israel without which Israel's very life will be sucked out in a matter of hours. They must be secure from natural threats as well as military and terror threats.

It can be done. The question is: at what cost.
