This article was in today's Hebrew Newspaper " Yediot Achronot ".

The Voice of Israel's overseas broadcasts on shortwave will cease in the
near future.

In the framework of the Israel Broadcasting Authorities financial cuts, it
was decided to relay the broadcasts through the Internet only. This will
create a saving of both frequencies and transmitters etc, which will come to
around about 20 million Shekels ( just under $4,500,000 ) a year.

The IBA Internet site relays Israel TV's Channel 1 , Reshet Bet ( Network
2 ), Reshet Daled ( in Arabic ) and foreign news broadcasts.

Kol Israel has been through this several times of late, hopefully this
is not the one time it will be true.

For those who wish them to remain on the air, send your comments to:
English Department, Israel Radio, PO Box 1082, Jerusalem 91010, Israel

This certainly doesn't strike me as the greatest time for Israel to
forego the potential public relations benefits of SW--not for that
saving anyway.

If they'd only stop murdering their neighbours, a large amount of the
American welfare money they receive could be diverted to maintaining
their radio services.

If only their neighbours would stop murdering them perhaps there might be
some kind of peace!

So what's Canada's excuse regarding their SW service?

This is dumb enough to be a troll but with you it can be hard to tell.
Just for starters:
