Despite reports saying otherwise, Israel.com did not sell over the weekend. A correction has been posted on the Haaretz website by Moniker saying the domain name is still up for sale through them.
The original, or one of the original reports, on Haaretz, said the
domain name sold for US$5.88 million. However Ana Cano, a Vice
President at Moniker, has made it clear the domain name is still
available.
The story at Haaretz along with Ana Cano’s correction is available from www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/989326.html.
