Hanoch Givton, director general of the Israeli Ministry of Tourism now visiting Germany, told the JTA that the campaign will be financed by the Israel government tourist office in Bonn, E1 A1 airlines and Lufthansa, the German airline. He said Israel hoped to double the number of German visitors in the next three years.
