WARREN BUFFET: "Israel has a disproportionate amount of brains"

Israel is a remarkably blessed nation

Israel is a blessed nation—a remarkably blessed nation. While many countries are reeling from the downturned economy and contracting with austerity measures, Israel continues to expand and seems to be doing even better in this downturn. That’s remarkable.

The Bank of England just announced it has to go back and cut once again its UK growth forecast. The US Treasury is taking “extraordinary measures” to avoid its debt limit, and with a recent credit downgrade by Standard and Poor’s, the A+ positive rating for Israel really stands out like a victorious flag waving above financial turmoil.

That’s just a small example of what is happening in Israel with technology. That’s enough to cause Warren Buffett to say, “Israel has a disproportionate amount of brains.” Israel is remarkably blessed indeed.
