Israel are obviously armed to the teeth in daily society because they are surrounded by people who desire their destruction, and I should imagine creates a rather sober climate with their approach to life in general. I suspect this will be misinterpreted. Siege mentality, perhaps.
Switzerland is an odd one. I think you are required by law to carry a gun certain times of the year or something. And they've been curiously absent from invasion for not just the last two world wars, but in general for a good couple of centuries.
