Reply #45: If Israel will not be a Jewish majority state in decades [View All]

it is because Jews don't have as many children as the Arabs. No conspiracy here. The Arabs tend to be poorer and less educated than the white European Jews. Statistics show that the more well educated and more well off have fewer children. Another thing contributing to the decline in the Jewish population in Israel is that many Israelis no longer live in Israel. Why are Israelis leaving Israel? Some never return or do not intend to return. Why?

If Israel or the world wants to reverse the Palestinian and Arab baby boom lets educate the women (a key to lowering birth rates) and help the Palestinians set up an economy.

Before I am labeled an antisemite I should advise that I am Jewish. I am not a self hating Jew and I attend services on a very regular basis (way more than two times a year).

I believe that when a government has gone astray as has the US and Israel then its abuses need to be brought to light. It does not mean I hate the US or Israel. I just believe both countries are not living up to the best they can be.

Remember Jews are called upon to be a light unto the nations. I think Israel's light has dimmed a bit.
