“There has been a 68% Jewish surge in the birthrate and that is the most significant symptom of the robust, unprecedented Jewish demographic tailwind.”

Ettinger’s argument is reflected in numbers from the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics, which does record a similar pattern in Jewish and Arab births.

Between 2000 and 2013, the Arab total of live births ranged between 38,801 and 41,440. In 2013, that number was 39,190. This contrasts immensely with the “Jewish and others” birthrate, which consistently grows every year from 95,559 in 2000 all the way up to 132,254 in 2013.

Citing also a new emigration of Arabs from Judea and Samaria, he says that there are a number of factors converging that are putting a dent in the demographic time bomb argument.

“It is unprecedented this robust Jewish demographic tailwind in fertility and the increasing Arab net emigration from Judea and Samaria. That’s the bottom line of the demographic balance of Jews and Arabs. Again, there is no time bomb but there is a robust tailwind.”

And that's really frustrating considering Trump's background in the Dutch Reformed world. Marble Collegiate Church isn't exactly a stereotypical RCA congregation, but when Trump was a child the Dutch heritage of the RCA on the east coast was still quite prominent, along with many ties directly to the Netherlands as a result of relief efforts to the Netherlands following World War II and Dutch immigration from the Netherlands.

If there is ANY ecclesiastical group outside modern American evangelicalism with a centuries-long history of positive relations with the Jewish people, the Dutch Reformed are that group.

I am quite aware that the East Coast RCA went liberal long before the Midwestern churches. But attitudes toward the Jewish people in the Dutch Reformed world did not change; if anything, they improved by the 1950s. Certainly there was not a heritage of anti-Jewish attitudes in the church circles where Trump was raised.

Trump grew up in those circles. He should know better.
