Not to mention how much aid they receive from the US.
How many attorneys per 10,000 in Israel compared to other countries?

I hate it when small countries are compared to large ones like the US. Of course the smaller countries will look better than the larger ones. A small country like Israel that is largely homogeneous, and of one religion, culture, language, etc, does not have the problems of the United States.
If Bill Gates bought an island and formed a country, with himself as the only citizen, he could boast that his country with just 1:6,000,000,000 of the worlds population, that everyone in the country has a masters degree, is a billionaire, etc... These studies simply bother the heck out of me.

If you fall in a hole, they just say who is the fool, the man who was fixing the street, or the idiot that was not watching where he was walking. I like it, you buy a lighter here and it does not come with an instruction booklet telling you not to light your clothes on fire.
In Israel, you are assumed to be competent until proven otherwise...
