Unfortunately the discussion turned into a political and populist discussion, but the gas deal is crucial to the security of the State of Israel. This gas was given to us as a gift from Hakadosh Baruch Hu, the gas depots that turn us into an international force with great capabilities, and they are below the ground.

Honestly, I haven't understand the big deal with the gas issue, for or against, and the various opinions as to what should or should not be done.
