Facts about Israel
May 2nd, 2008 Posted in englishIsrael was always more or less an unknown country for me and I only knew it from the news associated with bombs, shots, dead people and war in general so I took my time and got some additional information about Israel.
I found out the following positive facts about Israel:
- the ZEND engine was developed and invented in Israel, the office is still in Ramat Gan
- more museums per capita than any other country
- second highest book releases per citizen
- more patents per person than any other country
- over 85% of solide waste is handled carefully in the manner of the environment
- holds the largest concentration of high-tech industries in the world, in relation to its population
- ICQ was developed in 1996 by a team of four young israelis
- Israeli startup company TransChip developed the first high resolution camera that fits on a single electronic chip, for use in cellular phones
- Israel is one of eight countries capable of launching their own satellites into space
- Israeli engineers developed the worlds first cellphone at Motorola’s lab in Haifa, its largest research center in the world
- Israel has the third largest number of companies trading on Wallstreet after the U.S. and Canada
- Israel has more engineers and scientists per capita than any other country
- Intel processors and Microsoft Windows XP were developed in Israel
- American industry giants like GM, Ford, Boeing, and Lockheed Martin manage their manufacturing using software from the Israeli company Tecnomatix
- Israel developed a video camera so small it fits inside a pill, which you can swallow so they can use it for diagnosing diseases

But all those facts were so positive that I wanted to educate myself by viewing some videos about Israel and also found some quite interesting ones:

Well, after I watched those movies that really were interesting and full of answers, I still didn’t know what Israel is and how I can decide about it.
Watch yourself and make your view.
