Demographics.
20% of the Israeli citizens are Arabic/Muslim and their populalation is growing, while the Jewish population is declining.
Then, add the rising Palestinian population growth in Gaza and the West Bank, and the politics and problems with both.
Then, add Iran.
In the future, demographics may be an issue.
If I was an Israeli Jew I'd want a second passport, to get go and live elsewhere now, or if needed in the future.
............
can we non-Jews move into Israel and be an equal citizen ?
Jewish Semitic or Jewish European?
Goes without saying.
Yet, I believe the Americans are bankrupt - have been for some time. Doesn't keep them from expanding the military complex worldwide and surely won't exempt their maintenance towards their beloved Israel. There's only so many hind teets the U.S. can manage. Other items are push aside for favour of militarism and militancy.
Imagine that they all wanna fuck off back to Germany
Maybe most of those fleeing are secular, running from the Hasid, Orthodox and other extremists. It's 'Yahweh or the Highway!' I wish all religious extremists, of all religions, were rounded up and put on an island, issuing each one a knife having a 1” blade. Go to it, and leave the rest of us alone.
The western world is stupid to let Israelis get passports. It benefits Israel in that Israelis have access to two countries and vote in two places where European and north Americans have half the economic opportunity and voting rights. That's my view anyways. Anyone who joins the Israeli Army should lose their citizenship in America and Europe forever. It's total BS that people who leave to join the Israeli army still are allowed to keep their citizenship. The same should go for those who come to Europe or Americas. But governments love warm bodies for their armies.

As long as the middle east is important. i.e. oil. Israel will remain important to the west. So financial support will continue. The very large, very rich and influential Jewish overseas community will ensure that western support continues. Until there is a real peace environment in the middle east, Israel will be able to continue it's policies that would bring western condemnation in a heartbeat anywhere else in the world.

America as a country may be broke but its people are not.
Gather together a few rich Jews (Spielberg, Bernanke, et. al.) and Israel will have all the money it could ever need. There again they may just prefer to keep their money and watch their brothers rot.
Don't worry lad most of them have German passports I hear Belson is still available
