You talk about weapons, and Israel being pathetic other than what America gives them... who invented the atom bomb, basically the biggest most terrible weapon ever used... a Jewish guy. Fact!
And with all due respect, this forum, although I am sure it is full of knoledgable people on the subject, doesnt equal the international arms buying community... the Desert E is a good selling gun for a reason.
And no, Ive never been shot. yeah, a .45 would be the same, someone could shoot me wit a .22 and I would die if they hit me right, but could these guns bust through a wall or two and STILL kill me? doubtful!

Albert Einstein proved it was possible. He in no way shape or form "invented" the atomic bomb. There were a few hundred american scientists working on the project.
As for why the Desert Eagle is as popular as it is, simple, Counter Strike. Most people heard of it through this game and since it is phenominal in the game it must be great in real life, right?
Once again, the power of the .50 Action Express is very much over rated. There is a world of revolver cartridges that are much more powerful.
For instance:
.50 AE -- Around 1600 ft/lbs of energy at the muzzle
.454 Cassull -- Around 1800 ft/lbs of energy at the muzzle
.500 SW Magnum -- Greater than 2000 ft/lbs at the muzzle
Not to mention the .475 and .500 Linebaugh and it's wildcats (there's about six for each caliber). Each one is greater than 1600 ft/lbs of energy at the muzzle.
