Israel MUST eliminate the threat of a nuclear-armed Iran - Prof. Paul Eidelberg

If Israel does not eliminate the threat of a nuclear-armed Iran,

       

1) Jews in the Diaspora will NOT immigrate to this country;

2) Many Jews in Israel will leave;

3) Many Jews in Israel will have fewer children;

4) The percentage of Arab citizens in Israel will increase, hence

a. given Israel’s parliamentary system of Proportional Representation, the number of Arab Knesset Members will increase, which will lead to a further diminution of Jews in this country;

b. Israel’s tax base will diminish and this will have grave effects on defense spending, research and development, and infrastructure;

5) Tourism will drop;

6) Foreign investments will drop;

7) Israel will become strategically dependent on foreign aid;

8) Terrorists will be more inclined to attack Israel, and Israel will be less capable of preventing such attacks;

9) Israel will be subject to more to blackmail, especially from Washington;

10) The country will be demoralized.
