The jewish people themselves are the treasure of israel. They've been in business for just 60 years as a state now, but look at all they have accomplished : reforestation, irrigation, inventions, symphony orchestras, strong military, nobel prizes, the list goes on and on. Compared to the arabs in the same region, they are light years ahead. Oil wealth in arab hands gets squandered on playboy things, not economic development; oil wealth in israeli hands will be put to good use. If and when russia/china/arabs invade israel, it will mostly be because of jealosy, these people are BETTER at solving life's problems, AND they are a thriving democracy : when 2 jews get together to discuss politics, already 3 new political parties are formed...
Thank you for this -- and don't forget the latest Nobel Prize winner (married to an Israeli)
Oil in Israel - and at the new year - could be a nice fate sealed for the year ahead.
