They have a healthy economy from what little I know.
Their defense industry also sells systems and equipment worldwide.

You answered it yourself. "Although a wealthy nation"
Tourism & Agriculture brings millions of dollars into Israel. (this is why Hezbollah & Palestine want the land) They also have a tax system like ALL democracy's have.
I would like to know where Hezbollah and Hamas get their funding from? How can militant extremists get hold of such advanced weaponry ?

Interestingly noone pointed out that a lot of the actuall waepons come from the UK,.
Also, someone questioned how Hezbollah got such advanced weapons. They do not, a few old rockets and grenade launchers do not a modern army make. They get their cash and guns from Iran and Syria. Who get their cash from Russian and China

God bless America?

The main funds come from its defence budget but the US bankrolls Israel.

Are you serious? You really don't know that the USA is spending millions of dollars arming the Israelis? Who else could afford it or would be willing to do it? You need to start reading a good newspaper.

The USA sends more military aid to Israel than humanitarian aid to the whole of Africa.
