Isreal's Hi Tech

From the NY Post:
[...]Today, Israel is a high-tech superpower and one of the world’s top weapons exporters with approximately $6.5 billion in annual arms sales.
Since 1985, for example, Israel is the world’s largest exporter of drones, responsible for about 60 percent of the global market, trailed by the US, whose market share is under 25 percent. Its customers are everywhere — Russia, South Korea, Australia, France, Germany and Brazil.

In 2010, for example, five NATO countries were flying Israeli drones in Afghanistan. How did this happen? How did Israel, a country not yet even 70 years old, become a superpower with one of the most technologically advanced militaries in the world that is changing the way modern wars are fought?

The answer, I believe, is a combination of a number of national characteristics unique to Israel.
This is an interesting article. Israel kicks butt. But we knew that.

Hmm... Blogger wouldn't let me post my comment...

*sigh*

I will just meekly agree and say yes they do. Someone has to.

Perhaps the Mossad has an eye on this site?
