1. Most of the Jews in the world live in Israel.

Jewish population stats outside of Israel are outdated and highly exaggerated.

Or example..Montreal's Jewish population guesstimate is approx 100K.

In reality 50 to 60k would be the reality.

In fact no one really knows.

The only way to make a sensible count would be an estimate by way of the annual Jewish death count.

The death count we always know.
2. Population and size in/of Israel
Sjoerd van der Velde ,   Hoorn holland   (09.26.19)
The big question can be, if Israel is capable to absorb/to have all 14,8 Jews, if this is needed. Israel is the land of the Jewish People. Perhaps not all Jews want to live in Israel at the moment (2019) But have there been preparations done to make this possible? To force Jews to go to Israel perhaps is not good,but to go on a voluntarily way/basis. Must/has Israel the right to be a bigger country than as it is today?
3. God forbid more Jews here! Think of all the extra parties we

out of 1 million from former Soviet Union during 1990s, 30% LEFT to US and Canada. FAKE numbers.
