Good deal

"According to the Israel Export and International Cooperation Institute, the extent of trade between Israel and Jordan during the period of January until July 2008, including both export and import, was $247 million. This marked an increase of 59 percent compared to the same period last year.

Exports from Jordan amounted to $51 million from January to July 2008, which is 92% more than for the same period last year."

So basically, Jordan imports from Israel 4 times more than it exports to it. That's a really good deal.
