Originating in the Israeli-held Gulf of Eilat, the channel of water would cross the border to the high point in Jordan, then flow down to the Dead Sea. For recent example: When a suicide bomber's work killed three people on Monday in Eilat, a southern port city in Israel, the mayor put out a press release condemning the action: ``We join the international community in condemning this attack and hope this tragedy will not deter all parties from working together to bring peace and put an end to bloodshed in the area. Israel and Jordan could get together to develop a joint airport for Eilat and Aqaba, a plan that has been suggested before but has never actually got off the ground. |
