Mercedes

Most of the taxi cars in Israel are Mercedes, though generally, people drive smaller and less-expensive vehicles. When I inquired about this strange observation, I learned that a German president (not sure if he was formerly or is currently president) donated thousands of Mercedes cars to Israel as part of their retribution from the Holocaust. Obviously, a nation can't purchase back millions of lives lost at their own hands, but this is part of the continual amends Germany is making to Israel.
