If these numbers are accurate, there is one abortion for every two Jewish births in Israel.

That means that without abortion, Jewish and Arab birthrates in Israel would be at parity.

a 50% of live births in Israel end in abortion ?

My God....that is atrocious for a civilized culture....I would expect that in China.....

God frowns on this as surely as the sun rises in the east.

I honestly don’t understand the logic of waiting for the Messiah... and I don’t mean to be insulting. For millenia prior to the coming of Christ, you had deliverers, prophets, judges and kings who prophesied what to expect in the coming Messiah. Then Jesus came and fulfilled all of them—albeit differently than the Jewish expectations. There have been no new deliverers, prophets, judges and kings since with new revelations and prophecies on a future Messiah. Why could that be?

Interesting article.

Kinda puts all that "Israel is fighting against radical Islamic enemies for its very survival" nonsense into perspective. If the rabbi's numbers are correct, then Israel's own citizenry kills off a number of its own people every 18-19 days that equals all of the Israeli victims of terrorism in Palestine/Israel from 1920 through 1999.
