how many neo-nazis can be living in israel? i heard of a problem with russian immigrants when i was there, but is it really prevalent? i actually am asking for a response on this if possible as im curious - its not a rhetorical question.

The answer to your question is simple. May of the immigrants from Russia and the CIS are not Jewish. The prevalence of anti-semitism amongst these particular non-Jewish people is pretty much the same as that in Russia and the CIS. It's not 'Neo-Nazism' it's just plain old Jew-hatred, these are not organised groups of people, they are just people that hate Jews who happen to now live in a country where Jews are the majority. The same hatred of Jews can also be found among other non-Jewish groups in Israel such as amongst many Israeli Muslims.

Of the 1,000,000 plus immigrants from the former Soviet Union 70% are Jewish and 30%(300,000) are not. Of the 30% who are not considered Jewish, because they do not have a Jewish mother, many of these have a Jewish father or grandparent. They serve in the army, pay taxes and celebrate the Jewish holidays. Yet there is a small percentage with absolutely no Jewish connection. They consider themselves only "Russian". Amoungst this group are anti-semites.
