Israel's Eilat Port sees 85% drop in activity amid Red Sea Houthi attacks - Reuters

Eilat, which primarily handles car imports and potash exports coming from the Dead Sea, pales in size compared to Israel's Mediterranean ports in Haifa and Ashdod which handle most of the country's trade. But Eilat, which sits adjacent to Jordan's only coastal access point at Aqaba, offers Israel a gateway to the East without the need to navigate the Suez Canal.[...]

Without Bab al-Mandab "you close the main shipping artery to Eilat Port. And therefore we lost 85% of total activity", CEO Gideon Golber told Reuters.[...]

"We still have a small number of ships for exporting potash, but I believe that with a destination in the Far East they will no longer travel in that direction. So that will also go down," Golber said.

"Unfortunately, if it continues we will reach a situation of zero ships in Eilat Port."[...]

"If [...] the coalition countries and Israel lag in finding a solution for the Houthis, unfortunately we will likely have to furlough workers," he said, adding that a small number would be required to service any ships that do arrive.

"In the late 6th century, a new monotheistic religion called Islam was founded by its prophet Muhammad, whose followers became known as Muslims. Muhammad united the tribes of Arabia into a religious polity, a caliphate, whose domains he and his successors extended into a vast empire through holy war (jihad).[296][ci] They conquered Palestine in 636 to 640.[247][cii][ciii]

Society in the caliphate formed a pyramid with five layers.[297] Arabs were at the top, followed by converts to Islam (mawali) (this distinction disappeared after the Abbasids seized power).[297] Below them stood dhimmis, followed by non-Muslim free men and slaves at the bottom.[297] The dhimmi (meaning "protected person") were Christians, Jews, and Samaritans, who the Muslims designated as "peoples of the Book" (ahl al-kitab), meaning that they, like the Muslims, based their worship on a book God had given to them, which, in its essence, was identical to the Koran.[298] Unlike the previous rulers, the Muslims allowed them to practice their religions in peace. However, non-Muslim men had to pay a special tax (jizya) and they had to be submissive to Muslims.[298][civ] Dress regulations were imposed on non-Muslims, but it is uncertain whether they were ever enforced in Palestine.[299][cv] Muslim men were permitted to marry non-Muslim women even if the latter choose to remain in their faith. Muslim women, however, could not marry non-Muslim men, unless they first converted to Islam.[300][cvi] The Muslims also lifted the Romans' centuries-long ban on Jews in Jerusalem.[301]

The Muslims organized the territory of the Byzantine Dioceses Orientes (Syria) into five military districts, or provinces (jund, pl. ajnad).[302][cvii][cviii] The territory of Palaestina Prima and Palaestina Tertia became Jund Filastin and stretched from Aqaba in the south to the lower Galilee in the north and from Arish in the west to Jericho in the east.[303][cix] The Tulunids later expanded the borders of the province eastwards and southwards to include regions in modern-day southern Jordan and north-western Saudi Arabia.[304][cx] The newly founded city Ramla became Jund Filastin's administrative capital and most important city.[305] Jund al-Urdunn corresponded with Palaestina Secunda, covering most of the Galilee, the western part of Peraea in Transjordan, and the coastal cities Acre and Sur (Tyre).[306] Tabariyyah (Tiberias) replaced Scythopolis as the province's capital.[307]

Throughout the period, Palestine was a sort of gold mine for the caliphate and among its most prosperous and fertile provinces.[308] Palestine's wealth derived from its strategic location as a hub for international trade, the influx of pilgrims, its excellent agricultural produce, and from a number of local crafts.[309] Products manufactured or traded in Palestine included building materials from marble and white-stone quarries, spices, soaps, olive oil, sugar, indigo, Dead Sea salts, and silk.[310] Palestinian Jews were expert glassmakers whose wares became known as "Jewish glass" in Europe.[311] Palestine was also known for its book production and scribal work.[312]

The Muslims invested much effort in developing a fleet and in restoring seaports, creating shipyards, fortifying coastal cities, and in establishing naval bases in Palestine.[313] Acre became their chief naval base from which a fleet set out to conquer Cyprus in 647.[314] Jaffa came to replace Caesarea as Palestine's main port due to its proximity with Ramla.[315]

Though Palestine was now under Muslim control, the Christian world's affection for the Holy Land continued to grow. Christian kings made generous donations to Jerusalem's holy sites,[cxi] and helped facilitate the ever increasing pilgrimage traffic.[317][cxii] Pilgrims ventured for the adventure, but also to expiate sin.[319][cxiii] Many pilgrims were attacked by highwaymen which would later be cited by the Crusaders as a reason to "liberate" Jerusalem from the Muslims.[320]"

11 June 2023: Crown Prince Hussein, the Regent,  checked on the progress of the Aqaba Development Corporation’s (ADC) projects and programmes.

Safadi continued that ADC has also prepared a vision for launching a media hub in Aqaba to provide audiovisual production facilities, a vocational training institute, and residential buildings, to meet local and international market needs.

Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority Chief Commissioner Nayef Al Fayez attended the meeting.

Around 363 AD, Petra was destroyed by an earthquake but quickly recovered due to its wealth from nearby copper mines. During this time Christianity spread throughout Petra with churches, chapels, and monasteries built in the area. The site fell into disrepair after several battles between Muslim armies and Crusaders in 1258 AD however it eventually regained its importance and prosperity before being abandoned by nomadic Bedouins for centuries before being rediscovered in 1812 by Swiss explorer Johann Ludwig Burckhardt.

What if the Israeli military boot was on the other foot? 1/2

What if it was Hamas who had the manpower and resources to invade Israel instead of it being the other way around?

Being murdered and dying as a result of military action (bombing, combat, etc.) are different. 

If Hamas had the upper military hand, then as the accompanying AI artwork suggests, the Red Sea at the Israeli port of Eilat (Gulf of Aqaba) might live up to its name by being full of murdered and mutilated Jews, the surrounding water coloured by their blood. 

The reason for making such a dramatic image is to highlight the fact that the  atrocities Hamas indulged in on the 7th of October, 2023 are a function of an acquired and deliberately corrupted psychological history and not of natural inheritance. 

They have become unnatural hybrid human beings who are now effectively "Human In Shape Only" (HISO), a product of the Palestine culture in the Gaza Strip.

How did this internal change occur?

The fact that both human beings and horses can have their spirit broken (the archeotrauma, alt. archaeotrauma) is a first indication of when this wound appeared in the evolutionary timeline. Consequently, this specific psychological trauma has always been a factor in human societies and has been, and still is, often mistaken for a god. Break a child, subject it to years of relentless and repetitive religious indoctrination that generates layers of repression, and the resultant compounded wound can be corrupted into an internal god of violence with a halo of righteousness that is capable of any type of atrocity.

At the time of writing, it is Hamas' sexual violence (video) that is very much in the news, behaviour of a type that can be found within the artificial structures of human societies but does not exist in the Natural World.
