At 1969 , the Israeli parliament accepted the "Currency" Law .
This law declares that the name of the israeli currency will ever be "Sheqel" .
Since israeli politicians are corrupted as any politicians in the world ,
nothing happened for 11 years , and then at 1980 ,
the Lirah was finally converted to Sheqel .
Five years later , the currency was changed to "new-Sheqel" ,
FUCK THE LAW .
