Israel might as well just come out and say that they are treating Gaza and the West Bank as protectorates that they are squeezing tribute out of...
A while back (around 15 years ago) it was over 60%.

Adding all the taxes, including mandatory insurence, health insurence and etc. ends up for top end israeli at 68%.

Goddamit.

Some people on the board choose to end their sarcastic remarks with [/sarcasm], but I think this is somewhat contrived. The problem is that you are still somewhat new; as people get to know you and your political/moral mindset, this problem will vanish. In the meantime, I really wouldn't worry about it.
Thanks for the pointers I think I’ll go for the [/sarcasm] thing till I’m slightly more established just to be on the safe side.

As someone once said on this board before, what if Palestinians changed their cause to "no taxation without representation"?

Israel just might go "OK" and let Arafat tax the crap out of them?
