American Jews Invest Billion Dollars in Israeli Bonds
(IsraelNN.com) American Jews have gobbled up $1 billion worth of Israeli
bonds in this year's annual campaign despite the financial crisis that has
gripped the United States, Bonds official Yehoshua Matza said Friday morning.
He added that the buyers are more interested in helping Israel than they are
in making money on the bonds, which offer a lower interest rate than
available in American bonds.
Matza said that the billion-dollar mark could have been surpassed if Finance
Minister Ronnie Bar-On (Kadima) had not put a ceiling on the amount of bonds
to be sold.
