Israel has donated 0$ for the Tsunami Relief
I am not antisemite, so please don't say it... But I just saw this list and Israel is missing from it.

http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/asiapcf/01/02/world.relief.contribution.reut/

One would think they could donate a tiny part of the money (3 billion or so anually) USA is supporting them with...

Even North Korea (remember the axis of evil) has pledged 150 thousand dollars.

Can it be the list is wrong and Israel did actually donated?

1. That is strange
I could have expected the private sector would have donated some.

2. My Google search turned up all kinds of activity
And this was interesting:

Sri Lanka rejects Israel rescuers
Israel has cancelled plans to send a 150-person rescue mission to Sri Lanka after the devastated island objected to the military composition of the team
...
Israel's army had planned to send staff to set up field hospitals, including internal medicine and paediatric clinics, an Israeli army spokesman said.

3. Egypt is another large recipient of US aid that did not donate.
I'm going to lock this thread. There are many other governments that also do not appear on that list. Let's not single out Israel.
