Lets see if I get this correct sarman. The Hezbo/Hamas legion in Lebanon chant death to America and your interpretation is not to worry as it means nothing. Switch the camera's over to Israel and no chanting death to anybody.... Just commerce as usual. Last I checked Israel has over 70 venture capital firms investing over a billion $$'s in Israeli hi tech companies. Thriving VC Market in Israel International Venture Capital Firms: Several leading U.S. and European VC funds have Israeli branches, namely Alta Berkeley Venture Partners, Battery Ventures, Bessemer Venture Partners (BVP), BlueRun Ventures (BRV; formerly Nokia Venture Partners), Blumberg Capital, Bridge Capital Fund (BCF) LP, Canaan Partners, Defta Partners, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Partech International Inc., Susquehanna Growth Equity (SGE) LLC, Venrock, YL Ventures, Ziegler Meditech Equity Partners (ZMEP) LP. Additionally, there are some 220 international funds, including Polaris Venture Partners, Accel Partners and Greylock Partners, that do not have branches in Israel, but actively invest in Israel through an in-house specialist. The VC divisions of leading multinationals, among them Intel, HP, TimeWarner Inc., Sony, Cisco and others, which have opened R&D centers and acquired companies in Israel , have also found that the country offers a profitable VC market. You stay scared of Israel. As MQ pointed out.... when are the Pal's going to get smart and create jobs for themselves instead of allowing the $billions given to them to be stolen by you and your hate mongers.
