Israel should have a 30% VAT for all incoming European Tourists. It'll still be a heavy discount on what they stole from our grandparents
interesting spin

Why do you blame children for what their parents did?
Today's Europeans are really nice people.

Hmmmmm... interesting. When I suggested working around paying LH $200 for a third bag once, that same argument ("they stole from our grandparents") led me to get shredded to pieces here. (Don't bother looking for that thread, it's been deleted.)

One is a legislated tariff while the other would be borderline stealing

"Legislated", eh? Reminds me of that old line: "Don't steal... the government hates competition."

You do realize that in the 1930's there was a large segment of German Jewry that defended the Gov.
