In Israel very few women sterilize the bottles.  They just wash them with
bottle brushes  with the rest of the dishes.  My friend was told that it
makes no difference either way.

I was wondering if it may be a good campaign for breastfeeding to stress
that bottles +should+ be sterilized.  There are sterilizers sold in
pharmacies here, just rare than they're bought.

Should a woman who is pumping Bm on a regular basis and feeding with
bottles also be advised to sterilize?
