How much does electricity cost per kilowatt hour in Israel?
If the rate being charged for electricity is 10
cents[3] per kilowatt hour, then running the 100-watt bulb for one hour would cost
0.10 kW·h × $0.10/kW·h = $0.01, or one cent. Running a typical space heater
rated at 1500 watts would cost 15 cents per hour (1.5 kW × 1 h x $0.10/kW·h =
$0.15). Indeed one can determine how much any electrical device will cost to run
by multiplying the amount of kilowatts consumed by the device by the rate per
kilowatt hour by the time it will be run for (kilowatts × hours × rate-per-
kilowatt-hour = cost-to-run), being mindful of the fact that different rates may exist
even within one tariff.
Answer
Assume 46 agorot per kilowatt hour.
Searching online, I found several references to the price of residential electric energy,
but they were all dated by a year or two, and I didn't find a current one, so I'll have to
say that this figure is 'approximate'.
Today ... mid July 2012 ... one online foreign exchange converter lists
3.967 New Israeli Shekels to one U$Dollar.
So 46 agorot per kWh = 11.56¢ per kWh .
How much freedom does Israel have?
All the freedoms and liberties that Americans have from their bill of rights and constitution, are equally protected in Israel.

One reason is because Israel is so well-known for its freedom of speech and the press.

The Cuban Missile Crisis was when Cuba allowed Russia to store nuclear weapons in their country. This was done because of the short distance between Cuba and the United States.

The Cold War was also a war between democracy and communism. This was the single most event that cut off Cuban and American relationships, and today, the two countries do not have any foreign diplomatic relations.

Israel has won every war, wars of 1948, 1956, 1967, 1973, 1978, 1982, 2006 and 2008.
Claiming 2006 as a victory is very true since hezbollah had many injured, its true that Lebanon was hurt badly too....ibut after the war nasharalah was terried to walk in the open. nasharallah admitted that if he knew how israel would of beat him he never would of started that war. also side note since 2006 hezbollah has not bombed israel or tried anything stupid. So if israel lost the war like some people claim then this is a good loss because hezbollah is leaving israel alone.PSST...... since hezbollah cried for the 1701 i don't think they deserve to ''be called'' the winners
May i ask you why you didnt mention about 1968 war ?maybe because it was the first war in which Israel beat the soviet union and Arabs combineshas lost? Stop trying to change the history that's the hardest thing you can ever do :)

Deborah did not have a government. She was a judge that held no loyalty to any state or kingdom. If she were alive today, she would be considered an arbitrator as opposed to a judge.
While she lived, the Land of Israel was occupied by semi-autonomous tribes of Israelites held together in a loose confederation and by Canaanite, Philistine, and Phoenician Tribes that usually fought against the Israelite Tribes. The Israelite monarchy would come after her passing.
