9. #6 You're dreaming - Israeli Jews have +3 kids/household
Yaniv ,   Israel   (04.18.10)
That is about the same number as Arabs. You will not win by war, you will not terror and you will not win by demography -- YOU WILL NOT WIN. But you will certainly hurt yourself trying.

11. #6 Selective reading
(04.18.10)
Jews: 5,726,000 residents (75.7% ) Arabs: 1,548,000
12. #6, Salma, Arab Palestine is East of the Jordan
David ,   Boston, USA   (04.18.10)
Go complain to the Hashemites who rule Jordan Palestine. As for population West of the Jordan stop occupying Eretz Yisrael and go back to Arabia or Jordan Paletine. As for demographics. The PA and Arab world in general feeds so many lies to their population and the rest of the world you will be waiting along time to create a place that never existed for a people that never existed. Demographics show the trend is very Jewish in the West side of the Jordan. This trend has been consistent for the past 6 years and is growing. Good luck with the make beleive. We Jews are VERY VERY VERY patient. 2,500 years of praying to Jerusalem. It doesnt matter how many non Jews are in the area. They will never win unless they work to make peace with Israel. Then everyone wins. Otherwise, Arabs will continue to suffer from the lies told to them from their leaders.
13. Come to Facts Jews are MINORITY even in ISRAEL
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (04.18.10)
from this 7,5 million let 1,5 million is palestinian arab and there are about 1 million Druze. Total arab population is 2,5 mililon and would-be jews is 5 million Now 1 million of those 5 mililon is Black africaans who are lied they were jews and brought in Israel to fill IDF. Rest of 4 million is mostly immigrants from Russia and elsewhere who are not in fact exactly jewish. They paint swastikas on their schools. They are just poor people of Russia who claim they are jewish to fin a pieces of bread in Israel. They are about 1 million let us say, Then remains 3 million Real jews Even if they are 3 million THEY ARE MINORITY in 7,5 million and most of them in fact registred but not existing citizens of Israel, that is jews from all around the world with double citizenship status. So 3 million less double citizens who are not real Israeli citizens you are EVEN SMALLEST MINORITY of ISRAEL
14. #1 Why are you here exactly?
Talula ,   Israel   (04.18.10)
Why don't you worry about what's going on in your own country?
15. Yes, but are they Israeli citicizens...there's a difference!
Edithann ,   USA   (04.18.10)

(04.18.10)
make sure that in your next career, YOU SHOULD NEVER BE A STATISTICIAN. you seem not to even have basic math knowledge, my friend, much less the ability to interpret data.
17. #1
(04.18.10)
in the israeli cemetaries are the founders and protectors of the jewish state. their descendants, 75% plus, live in israel today, proudly, with unity and love for the country. if you do not like this, it is a pity because we'll be here even after your great grandchildren live on earth.
18. 13#, There are 100,000 Druze
Judah ,   Golan Heights,ISRAEL   (04.18.10)
And they are included in the Muslim count. There are not millions of Africans. Of the one million or so Russians 70% are Jewish. So I hate to ruin your day but your statistics are all screwed up. And by the way I live in the Golan which will be Israels' forever. Happy 62nd birthday Israel!
19. HOW MANY OF THE 75% ARE HALACHIC JEWS?
........DACON9   (04.18.10)
HOW MANY ARE FALSE CONVERTS HOW MANY ARE WANNA BEE FOR ISRAEL AID AND SO WHAT TO ALL OF IT? TORAH STILL SAYS THAT THE RIGHTEOUS WILL BE FEW IN ALL THE NATIONS. SO LETS ASK HOW MANY ARE TRYING TO LIVE RIGHTEOUS LIVES AS JEWS
20. Now that's funny
Amih'ai ,   Yesha   (04.18.10)
In this country, everything is a miracle. Even the total population : There are 100.2% israeli inhabitants according to the numbers. At this rate, in ten years, we are going to be 120%. It's not a good idea to always round the numbers toward the higher percent =P
21. One Arab for three Jews ? Unstable.
Nora Tel Aviv   (04.18.10)
These latest statistics prove that in April 2010 exactly 1,843.641 Arabs, calling themselves Palestinians, live in Israel (%24.3).
22. How many of the rest
Krzysztof ,   Warsaw,Poland   (04.18.10)
are non-halakhic people who consider themselves Jews by nation, but the state deprives them from Jewishness... ?
23. #5 your dreaming !! !that's why there are wars
rachel ,   usa   (04.18.10)
you can count on it .....
24. #19 you really like to shoot yourself in the foot .....
love Israel ,   forever   (04.18.10)
wake up its 2010 , stop being so narrow minded ....judaism is an open minded religion .....
25. Israel doesn't count people living there since state created
Math   (04.18.10)
Palestinians in West Bank don't count - only the land does.
26. Population = ALL of the people inhabiting a territory
Populus   (04.18.10)
Learn to count right!
27. #6 Nour/Salma-By 2025
Cynthia ,   USA   (04.18.10)
Let's hope by then the Palestinians create something for themselves. Find a way to put the 40%-60% unemployed to work so Israel doesn't have to take care of them. Deal with your problems instead fantasizing about Israel's demise. It's only a temporary escape from reality.
28. 35% of 1948 Jewish pop. born in Israel?
Orly ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (04.19.10)
The article claimes that in 1948 35% of the Jewish population was born in Israel, in contrast to 70% today. I'm no historian, but I'm pretty sure that when independance was declared here 0% of the Jewish population was Israeli born. I'm quite certain that 35% of the Jewish population of the nascent state had been born in Palestine.
29. #28 wrong knuklehead , my grandmother and her grandmother
sepharad   (04.19.10)
