Barrett said Israel was still in with a good shot at a new plant if expansion returned to the agenda. Israel was attractive because of its strong background in engineering and technology. He said Intel was looking at other sites, and would evaluate a range of conditions -- financial and political -- but he said the current instability between Israel and the Palestinians was not troublesome. ``This is a long-term investment,'' he said. ``We don't get bothered by short-term issues.'' I'm not sure how Barrett can say that tensions between Palestinians and Israelis are simply a "short-term issue". This is the ultimate long-term issue for both sides.
