Israel Aims To Ban Gasoline, Diesel Vehicles By 2030 (cleantechnica.com)

An anonymous reader quotes a report from CleanTechnica: 2030 seems like a long way off, but it's really just around the corner. And when the bell tolls at midnight on December 31, 2030, you may not be able to buy a gasoline- or diesel-powered vehicle in Israel. After that date, all passenger cars will be electric and all trucks will be powered by electricity or compressed natural gas, if a proposal currently under consideration gets approved by the government. A final decision is expected by the end of this year. Energy Minister Yuval Steinitz [told Reuters last month] the biggest challenge will be creating a "critical mass" of electric and CNG powered vehicles before the deadline arrives. "We are already encouraging [the transition] by funding ... more than 2,000 new charging stations around the country," he says. The plan was set in motion one day after the United Nations issued its latest climate assessment that finds nations must do far more than they are currently doing in order to stave off warmer global average temperatures that will put the environment at risk. In order to reach the goal, the Israeli government will "reduce taxation on electric cars to almost zero, so they are going to be much cheaper," Energy Minister Yuval Steinitz said. He expects there will be about 177,000 electric cars on Israeli roads around 2025. By 2030, the expectation is that there will be nearly 1.5 million EVs in the country. The country has a ways to go though, as there are less than 100 electric cars on the roads today.

    Want to know just how sick and twisted the owners of Slashdot really are?

    Go read actual quotes from the satanic js who are the current 'ministers' in Izrael's goverment. Almost all of these demons have first hand experience of raping, torturing and murdering those the js call 'sub-Human'.

    These depavaties are open about wnating hundreds of thousands of palestinians MAIMED for life- which is why the current j-ish hitler implemented his free fire sniper policy on demonstartors.

    Google "ONE SHOT TWO KILLS". The satanic js awarded graduates of the izraeli sniper schools with clothing that depicted a j-ish sniper cross-hair on the belly of a pregnat 'sub-Human'. This was no prank, but widespead policy by the j-ish military. The very thing the js accuse the original nazis of doing, they themselves boast they have perfected in izrael.

    The self-described 'enemy' of the js were the modern secular nations of the Middle East, like Libya, Syria and Iraq. Wahhabi sh-tholes were the allies of Izrael, for the despots that ruled to keep their people down in the name of 'Islam' suited the js just perfectly. This is why Izrael assisted saudi Arabia in its wahhabi invasion of Syria. And why the current butcher whole rules in Saudi arabia boasted of his eternal friendship with Izrael.

    Slashdot will lionise Izrael whenver it can, and demonise Iran, russia and China whenever it can.

    Izrael is the purest example of evil imaginable. As I type, the j-ish conbtrolled houses of Congress in the USA will be voting to offer absolute support to the demonic js for their new atrocities in Gaza. Even in the UK and France this never happens in their parliaments. But 100% of members of the US congress are j-ish owned. Are you Americans proud to be slaves to such a death cult?

    Izrael's j-ish hitler wants American to wage war on Iran. And america is preparing to do just this. What sick sadistic monster could support such a situation to any degree? The j-ish control of America = the murder of millions of Iranians.

    Clinton promised immediate war on Russian forces in Syria in support of the wahhabi terrorists if she were elected, and a quick path to the Iran war shortly afterwards. THAT is why Trump won. Now Trump is just as much pro-war. A consequence of the stranglehold the death cult holds over America.

    Now think about the REAL reason Slashdot hosted this story.
