Why Are So Many Jews Leaving Israel?

Why do you dig up these idiotic blogs georgephillip? Is it because you hate the Jews?

George thinks Israel is a "shitty little country"

Well, that's only proof he never visited there. Israel is a modern, vibrant and thriving country.

How come Israel is a first world nation but the rest of the countries in the region are third world shit holes?

The short answer to both of your questions is the US taxpayer:

"Israel is the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign assistance since World War II. To date,
the United States has provided Israel $118 billion (current, or non-inflation-adjusted, dollars) in
bilateral assistance..."

"In 2007, the Bush Administration and the Israeli government agreed to a 10-year, $30 billion
military aid package spanning from Fiscal Year (FY) 2009 to Fiscal Year 2018. During his March
2013 visit to Israel, President Obama pledged that the United States would continue to provide
Israel with multi-year commitments of military aid subject to the approval of Congress."

Best congress money can buy.

Israel?s population grows slightly to 8.081 million | Jewish Telegraphic Agency
The population in Israel rose to 8.081 million — 148,000 more than on the eve of Rosh Hashanah a year ago.

According to data released Monday by Israel’s Central Bureau of Statistics, the population grew by 1.8 percent, with 75.1 percent of Israel’s population, or 6.066 million people, listed as Jewish. Arabs made up 20.7 percent of the population. There were no significant changes in either group.

Those listed as others made up 4.2 percent of the population, including Christians and people without religious affiliations.

Last year, 163,000 babies were born and 40,000 people died.

In addition, there were 16,968 new immigrants to Israel in the Jewish year 5773, as well as more than 6,000 Israelis who returned to the country after living abroad.

Now don't you feel stupid. I guess admitting and being proud of the fact that you have worked minimum wage jobs your entire life, you usually do feel stupid anyways!

You often post these lies about sewage, then just above a blog about apartheid walls etc. Perhaps you ought to acquaint yourself of facts rather than dig up your dubious sources.

"According to the Palestinian Water Authority, the settlement of Ariel has been pumping its sewage directly into the nearby Palestinian village of Bruqin, creating a dangerous and unhealthy situation for the residents of Bruqin..."

"Ariel is the largest Israeli settlement in the West Bank, housing around 40,000 Israelis. Israeli officials have said that they will retain Ariel through any negotiations with the Palestinian Authority, despite the acknowledged fact that Ariel, like all Israeli settlements in the West Bank, is in direct violation of international law and the Fourth Geneva Convention.

"Israeli sewage dumping on Palestinian land is common, and Israel controls 80% of the water in the West Bank, despite the fact that it is on Palestinian land."

Not hard to see why their god loves Jews, is it?

like all Israeli settlements in the West Bank, is in direct violation of international law and the Fourth Geneva Convention.

That's bad.
No wonder Palestinians are outraged.
Israel sometimes does itself no favours.

I'm not sure of how the issue of Palestine plays out in the Australian press.
In the US mainstream and US Congress, Israel is a sacred cow never to be questioned.
The debate in Israel itself is more vigorous with some Israelis questioning the wisdom of eternal occupation and the enormous expense it generates. Some Jews have always believed Zionism, unlike Nazism, was not based on a theory of racial superiority but rather a mixture of nationalism and religion even though many early Zionist were internationalist socialists and/or atheists. Go figure.

The practice of some stinky, racist Jews who live on hilltops using gravity to deposit their shit on Arabs living below them is at least as factual of Israel's Apartheid Wall, or do you deny your wall, as well?

Why are so many smart Jews leaving their sinking ship?

"THE SECOND reason for hysteria was the award of the Nobel Prize to two American Chemistry professors who were educated in Israel, one of them born in a Kibbutz.

"Israel is immensely proud of its Nobel laureates. Relative to the size of the country, their number is indeed extraordinary.

"Many Jews are deeply convinced that the Jewish intellect is superior to that of any other people. Theories about this abound. One of them is that in medieval times, European intellectuals were mostly celibate monks who did not bequeath their genes to any offspring. In Jewish communities, the opposite happened: the rich were proud to marry their daughters to especially gifted Torah scholars, allowing their genes to start life in privileged circumstances."

Don't worry.
Morons like you will always have religion.

Stinky racists Jews depositing their shit on Arabs living below? Doesn't happen, and I proved it in my post above in bold typeface. Didn't you see it? You bring up this sewage lies several times, and I disprove it. Your hate for the Jews knows not bounds that you have to believe antisemites' claims. You're views would be a joke if they weren't so foul. The wall is there to keep the terrorists in the Palestinian population out of Israel.

Except it does happen.
Who would expect any less from racist Jews and their lying apologists?

"Twice per month, authorities of the illegal Jewish settlement city of Beitar Illit (population 38,000) open their sewage storage tanks and flood the adjacent Palestinian village and orchards with sewage, polluting crops and almond orchards and vineyards near Bethlehem.

"It starts on Friday evening and goes most of Saturday. The water table and nearby Palestinian village are being poisoned. Disgustingly, this same illegal settlement has been awarded the 'Stars of Beauty Prize' as one of Israel's cleanest municipalities for 5 straight years."

So, have we figured out yet that the OP is bullshit?

That there is a NET migration rate favorable to Israel?

Has anybody produced a 5- or 10-year pattern-analysis graph yet, with a focus on Jews only, showing...

2012 - Arrivals - Departures - Net gain or loss - Percent of population
2011 - Arrivals - Departures - Net gain or loss - Percent of population
2010 - Arrivals - Departures - Net gain or loss - Percent of Population
2009 - Arrivals - Departures - Net gain or loss - Percent of Population
2008 - Arrivals - Departures - Net gain or loss - Percent of Population
...
2003 - Arrivals - Departures - Net gain or loss - Percent of Population

...so that we may see whether there is truly a trend, and so that we may see whether the figure is truly statistically significant or not?

Didn't think so.

False alarm.

Much ado about nothing.

Kindly point out the words "net migration rate" in the OP or admit the insignificance of your latest false alarm.

"However, sober research showed that emigration has actually decreased during the last few years. Polls show that the majority of Israelis, including even a majority of Arab citizens, are satisfied with their economic situation – more than in most European nations."

Go back and look at my Post No. 10 in this series...

http://www.usmessageboard.com/israel-and-palestine/320058-why-are-so-many-jews-leaving-israel.html#post8037047

Net Migration Rate, measured over time, is the basis for judging whether your claim (so many Jews are leaving Israel) is accurate or not.

The example that I gave [ Arrivals - Departures = Net Migration Rate ] is the only metric that can give us an objective, unbiased portrayal of whether more Jews are coming or leaving [ Net Migration Rate ].

Given your failure to recognize that simple proofing tool, I take it that you did not do well in Math, in school.

Until you can demonstrate your claim factually and objectively, your claim will continue to be viewed for what it is - a false alarm.

Sure it is.
So's Palestine.

"12% of Israelis report having paid bribes in the last year, in the dubious company of such countries as Argentina, the Philippines and Rwanda, and outranking most comparably wealthy countries. The exact same percentage of Palestinians report having resorted to bribery in the last 12 months."

Maybe you meant Israel is one of the most honest countries in the world?

A three and a half year old link from a dubious source. Typical!

Israel's core values are timeless.

"It’s one thing to punish someone for calling attention to Israel’s rank behavior. It is something else to insist that foul is actually fair–-to say the sewage smells like roses.

"Who would be reckless enough to imply such a nauseating thing and do so with a straight face before cameras with the whole world watching? How about the President of the United States? He lives in Washington D.C., where denial of Israel’s malodorous nature is almost unanimous.

"President Obama had an interview with Israel’s Channel 2 TV station on 15 March 2013, just before he left to visit that country. In the interview he stated that he admires Israel’s 'core values.'

"The Israeli journalist Gideon Levy, who has an honest nose for these things, editorially asked Obama, which values he was talking about?

"The dehumanization of the Palestinians?

"The attitude toward African migrants?

"The arrogance, racism and nationalism?

"Is this what he admires?

"Don’t separate buses for Palestinians remind him of something?"

What's your choice?
