Last year I participated in the birthright program, and didn't find any of the israelis I met to be pricks. I've met a number of them over in the states as well, and found them to be pretty reasonable people. Just because they lack the mental energy to maintain the facades which many american jews have, doesn't mean they're full-on dicks.

I grew up on long island, and I've lived in cambridge (UK) for over a year -- trust me, i've seen real pricks.

Israeli women are hot...if only because they lack the prada/black clothing/black hair/nosejob uniform of the carbon-copied new york jewish girls I grew up with.
