I never said that in Israel they had less terrorism. Again, in Egypt the terrorists look solely for "western tourists." In Israel they look for the local population and "attempt to avoid tourists." In fact they have officially indicated this.
It is up to each individual to decide whether they wish to visit countries in turmoil. In Jordan too they target hotels and tourists. Fortunately they have been able to stop them there so far.
