5 minutes in Israel - video.

Assembled by a travel company in Madrid, but it looks just beautiful

Wouldn't you like to see it?

Muchos Dollaritos! Can you come up with a tally for that matter?
On a different note, every available indication shows, Israel is one of the few nations in the Western World, which actually makes surplus.
I just think everything looks great in a travel commercial.

Fine.
How about $1.6 trillion spent in support of the 'Holy Land' since 1973?

On the travel issue.

Personally, I am antipathic to walls in general and speaking to them in particular, doesn't make me feel any better.

Probably goes back to the 1940's when the UN created the state of Israel and the surrounding Arab states immediately attempted to destroy it and in losing, set those states the pattern for the subsequent 60 years.

Now tell us all how how per year, how it is divided and why. Yet another boondoggle brought to us by that genius, Jimmy Carter.
