The SP card is a great card to use in Israel.  IIRC there are no other cards besides for the SPWMC that cover car rental insurance (as opposed to SP visa or regular sapphire card). But if you want to be sure this thread discusses it.
It's not about the quantity of your posts.  It's about the quality.

+1. If it's sapphire preferred and its MC, than  doesn't it have to be WMC?!

United Club is also a great card to use, as you earn 1.5 UA miles/$ when SP won't give you double points (travel and dining).

+1 Many many times, especially this question.

It wouldn't hurt you to search a bit next time before starting a new thread.

Safe trip!
