You can get an AT&T SIM for $2 a day unlimited and insert it in your global phone. You can generally buy those SIMs on ebay for .99.

What would be the best cellphone deal for a visitor to the USA for a week and a half?

They want the ability to call Israel for long periods of time.

TIA

If you have a phone already (Metro/Page Plus etc.) MegaHertz has pretty cheap international plans, and there's no contract.
Their number is: 718-310-3082

Try Lycamobile. 2 cents/minute airtime. Israel is 1 cents/minute (on top of airtime) to both landline or mobile. Free sim card from lycamobile.com
