Life expentancy in Israel is 79.4 years – 14th in the world.
Life expentancy in the US is 77.1 years. (This particular stat. source.)

I learned about this from Ma’ariv International.
You can read a PDF version of the entire report (except USA state cited elsewhere) here.
Israel also ranked 29th in the mortality rate of children under 5. Israel’s population growth ranked 34th at 3.9% per year with a birthrate of 2.77.
