Before the name calling begins I urge you to spot the problem with this deal. This is a trend that has been going on between where the American tax payers money is benefiting the State of Israel. This is just something disturbing on a local level but reflective of a national trend that has been going on in this country for quite some time. Also you should read the user comments on the article. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/palmbeach/sfl-flpisrael1205pndec05,0,4746474.story
Without the US $$$$$, Israel cannot survive more than a decade. Then you read their newspapers and all they do is laugh at americans and insult the US.
Whats crazy is that they use the US money to pay the interest on those bonds. The scam works amazingly in favor of the Israelis who use our taxpayer money risk free.
