How do you mean? he is in East Jerusalem, the "Old City".
manny78 said:What is he doing there ?
MattTheSkywalker said:
Studying abroad. Crazy fucker I think.

The country itself ain't that bad. He just chose the wrong place to stay. Just tell him to keep a handgun on him everytime (CCW is legal there).
Chaucer said:
Israeli's are armed to the teeth (which is interesting since Jews are usually the leaders in the US seeking to abolish the 2nd amendment). People literally walk the streets with machine guns. I wonder why they don't have a crime epidemic like us in the states?

Jews leading to abolish the second Amendment?
I doubt this....given how much shit they have gone through, the last thing they want is to be unarmed. There is a saying among Jews: "every Jew a .22"
No crime epidemic because an armed society is a safe society. No one fucks around. The UK banned guns and crime jumped up.

Ya, that is typical. Site the one organization that the "Chosen" have set up to counter the all jews are anti gun. Here is a better read on Jews and the anti gun crusade.

Kalashnikov said:Just did a quick search and found out that less than 5% of Israeli citizens are allowed to own firearms. Apparently, if you are allowed to own one over there you can carry it without any other permits. When you have permission to own a gun in Israel you can only own a single firearm with your permit (this goes for civilians). Military and other government workers may be able to carry the firearms they are issued in public and this boosts the percentage of total citizens carrying, however normal citizens basically have the same gun rights that someone would have in the UK:almost none.

Chaucer said:America has a high crime rate because we are a "melting pot" of different races and ethnicities who commit crime at varying levels.
David Schwimmer said:Israel is, for the most part, a beautiful country. Its a shame more people dont have the opportunity or the desire to see it.
David Schwimmer said:Chaucer, do you have an opinion or explanation as to why America has such a high murder rate despite the stats you provided?
MattTheSkywalker said:
Crime has been shown to be economic about 100000000000000000000000000000000 times. it is cyclical and typically opposite of the economy. Good economy, less crime. Bad economy, more crime. It's that easy.
Unfortuantely, race and poverty often go hand in hand, so people miss the point.

It is only beautiful if you like the desert.

It is the culture, not the guns.

Chaucer said:
Owned if that were true. But it is a well known fact that Israeli's own more guns percentage wise than Americans. My Jewish friends who have visited Israel have also mentioned this.
"The United States has a higher murder rate than other countries because Americans own so many guns." False. Switzerland and Israel have more gun ownership than the United States and their murder rate is far less. Switzerland has more guns per person than any country in the world, yet is one of the safest places to be. All males age 20 to 42 are required to keep fully automatic rifles or pistols at home. It's a common sight to see Israelis carrying sidearms. On the other hand, Brazil and Russia have complete gun control, and their murder rate is five times that of the United States. "

Read it for yourself. It mainly debunks all those liberal myths dealing with gun control.

LOL well yeah but still, its not like people compare Israel to the heart of the Sahara.

Then explain Canada's lack of crime (even though both countries have relatively the same rates of poverty).
Mandinka2 said:Actually I think its great that your brother went out there Matt , at least he will see with his own eyes the situation out there as opposed to one painted by media elements. Everyone should do some travelling to open their mind a little and see how the other side lives.
Testosterone boy said:Well........how are things in Israel?
He picked an interesting time to visit. Med school perhaps?
