Armed, you're link is broken and please look at the modern population growth charts, its sinking for quite a while. Maybe the chart you're looking at doesn't show today's demographics.
Yeah, I failed on the link. And the chart was from Wikipedia, West Bank shows as a 3.something [there are three charts, I looked at the UN one], and is ranking rather high in it's percent growth from last year [Israel in the middle, at 70-th position. Most other less developed countries came first, and those that were more developed came later on.
What I am saying is that, though Palestinian population growth is slowing down -- it has been, and is still [in comparison to many areas of the world, even Israel] rather high. Even so, There are less and less people of Palestinian origin within that area, be it West Bank or Israel. So the obvious question is -- why have so many left in the past years?
Also, in just about every country in the world, fertility rates follow a trend. High in the preindustrial and industrial, and they sink in the postindustrial. Israel is a major exporter of arms and other manufactured items, and for that reason, it can be seen as transferring into a postindustrial stage -- but not quite there yet. It's still a pretty young nation, and statistical history of population growth shows that as Israel lasts longer as a industrialized nation, it's growth will shrink. I understand that there are loads of factors, but just as it is with everything, the biggest deciding factor here is money.
And I say yes. The land was taken over by Arabs and it is Christian and Jewish holy land. Pose this question:
Your premise has failed. I think you are assuming that it is only Christian and Jewish land. It, in fact, is Jewish, Christian, and Muslim land.
So your thought about us invading India does not make sense as we, unlike Arabs, have no religious tie to the land -- but Muslims do with Israel.
Judaism suggests that every other race is created to serve them.Killing,stealing,fornication from everyone is free but jewish.
Thanks for your opinion but that doesn't help to answer the question. Are you saying Jewish ideology is bad and therefore we shouldn't support the country?
Some small radical groups from the Jewish orthodox communities believe Israel should only be made after the messiah arrives and that today's Israel should make preparations for his arrival
So these groups would rather have a Palestinian government in the area or do they just support anarchy and religious festivities in the holy land? What solution do these radicals give to the problem?
