	Internationally: Linux can be bought all over the world in bookstores and over the net. usually you will be able to find the "official" packages on the websites of the corresponding companies' webpages, or go to sites like LSL (http://www.lsl.com), Cheap*Bytes (http://www.cheapbytes.com/) or Linux Mall (http://www.linuxmall.com) for a cheaper deal. Downloading it yourself IGLU's own server (http://iglu.org.il/mirrors.html) offers ISO images and seperate files to download your own distributions and burn on a CD, remember these files are 640 megs each though, the above options may be cheaper and more conveniant.
