Hey Gals, Check This Out - Israeli Biotech Industry Skyrockets As Women CEOs Lead the Way [Video]

This is how they do things in a high-tech, egalitarian democracy:

Israel's life sciences industry reached new highs in 2006, proving not only a point of pride for the country but also new opportunities for women as leaders in traditionally male-dominated roles. Israel's biotechnology industry includes some 730 startups and 33 incubators, which contain 200 companies with a market potential in the billions. foreign venture capital investors... In the top rank of those leading this hi-tech comeback are three successful women: Dr. Tamar Tennenbaum, Dr. Daphna Heffetz and Chen Levin who are making their mark as CEOs, showing their aptness as forward thinkers in their respective areas of science and propelling their ideas into market.

And now, as a bit of a contrast, here's a woman on Lebanese TV discussing AIDS, Bird Flu, Mad Cow disease... and of course, Jews!

We'd give you a link to a Code Pink rally filled with hysterical poseur feminists screaming about Israeli injustice - but you already know about that.
