10-30-2013 Israel's Weapons Industry, Arms Trade and Military and Surveillance Co-operation with the European Union – Shir Hever (economic researcher at Alternate Information Center) ePalestine

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeDFEoKEi8Y The European Union is Israel's most important trading partner. An increasingly important part of that trade is in goods and services of the defense and homeland security industries.
