Israel at 56
(Jerusalem Post) Editorial - Against all odds, the Jewish people has a country in its own land, after 2,000 years of exile. Israel's standard of living ranks 35th among the nations, and 19th in life expectancy (above the U.S. and UK). We have by far the largest number of hi-tech start-ups per capita in the world and have attracted venture capital at rates exceeding most European countries. Israel has, proportionately, the highest number of university graduates in the world, and the fourth largest air force, after the U.S., Russia, and China.
