In short - it won't work. Bezeq has chosen to work with pptp and not
pppoe so it's simply not supported.
You can do it "abroad" simply because Telcos abroad (some of them) chose
pppoe instead.
As a matter of fact, some of the xDSL providers abroad work with a
"bridged" configuration where there is no need for any tunneling
protocol at all - the DSL unit simply looks like a bridge (or Ethernet
switch) to the computer, much like the cable expreiment in Israel does
today.

It's a matter of choice by xDSL provider. that's all.
