Is the Gaza Stripe part of Israel?
The Gaza Strip is an anomaly. It was part of Egypt, but when Egypt and Israel signed a peace treaty, Egypt refused to take back the Gaza Strip. Under international law, it was considered part of Israel, but Israel does not believe in occupying other areas, so they declined to take over the Gaza Strip. It is not part of any country, nor is it independent.

Israel did not ruing anything that had to do with oil. It makes no sense - the oil-producing countries are going to sell oil, and they are going to have competitive pricing until there is a shortage of oil, when the price goes up.
The price of gasoline, say, also can rise in the US due to taxes per gallon levied by each State or by the US government.
Finally, Obama stated in a recent speech that he would not mind if gasoline prices went up to $5 or $6 per gallon. I strongly suspect that he is aiming for the government to sell gasoline at some point, making the US citizens be at their mercy. (This is already, truly, happening with national health care), and has happened with General Motors especially with their horrible Volt electric car . . . the one that catches fire with no warning.

Why is Judaism not practiced in Middle Eastern countries other than Israel?
Answer 1
Until not long ago, there were large Jewish communities in every Middle Eastern country. Because of persecution, they found it necessary to leave most of those countries.
Answer 2
Many of the larger Jewish communities in the Arab World such as Iraq or Morocco constituted hundreds of thousands of Jews. These Jewish communities experienced a great amount of friction with the Muslim majorities in their countries during the Colonial and Post-Colonial Periods. The arrival of the colonizers into the Arab World led to a separation between the Jews and Christians and the Muslims. European Jews and Christians of esteem from Europe began to educate and modernize the Jewish and Christian communities in the Arab World. This brought the Jews and Christians more in line with the colonial governments than with the indigenous Arabs. Jews in the Arab World began to become more regimented and modern. They eventually left the Arab World en masse after the independence of the Arab countries, due to a multiplicity of factors including: pogroms, executions, Anti-Semitic laws, and Anti-Zionist sentiment. (It is important to note that even though many Jews from the Arab World ended up going to Israel, they did not support Zionism as a political movement prior to that point on account of the antagonism it would cause and because many of them held that creating such a state would be blasphemy.)
What type of society were the Israelites?
A monarchy. Most of the people engaged in agriculture, but there were also many tradespeople and those who had crafts.

They had courts consisting of tens of Torah scholars in every major town. The Holy Temple and its Cohanim were also an important presence.
