A Continuing Demographic Victory
Recently, it was suggested that fully 15% of the Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria are citizens of the United States. That would be 60,000 persons. If true, and I personally think that it is a high guess, it would have to include second and third generation progeny.
It also begs the question: how many Arab residents are Americans? Like the terrorist who killed Malachi Rosenfeld.
And now, to another set of stats.
The school year has begun and in my own regional council, Mateh Binyamin, I have been informed that these are the numbers:
School pupils total – 22,302
First graders – 1,607
Primary school pupils – almost 13,000
High school pupils – 3,869
High schools – 19
Kindergartens and other pre-school nurseries – 179
Preschoolers – 5,354
Infant creches – 31
Infants (from 3 mos. to 3 years) – 1,500
A demographic victory. A continuing one.
P.S. To be fair, there are high schoolers from outside Yesha who learn in the Ulpanot and Yeshivot. These figures also do not take into account post-12th grade educational institutions.
P.P.S. I cannot tag my posts with such memes as Yesha, Judea and Samaria, demography, etc., so excuse me.
