She comes off as a paranoid loon. Does she actually think Israel would be safer for her? There’s probably close to a million Israelis who have already left Israel because of the war many saying they have no intention of returning. These are the highly skilled Jews and those with money leaving which doesn’t bode well for Israel’s future.

“Does she actually think Israel would be safer for her?”

The expression “from the frying pan and into the fire” comes to mind.

Your numbers are incorrect; 216,700 net emigration since the war. If your numbers were correct, the cost of housing and value of the Shekel to the Dollar would be lower.

Israel is definitely safer for her than New York. In Israel, if you are attacked, there is a much higher likelihood that someone will intervene to help you, unless you are a terrorist in which case you are likely to be terminated.

AI Overview:

According to data from the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), approximately 82,000 Israelis emigrated in 2023, with a marked increase in departures immediately after the October 7 attacks. Some sources suggest that over half a million Israelis left the country during the first six months of the war, though some of these may be temporary departures. Key figures related to the number of Israelis leaving the country since October 7, 2023, include:

Net Migration: Israel has experienced an unusual "negative migration balance" since the attacks, with more people leaving long-term than returning. In 2023, the gap between those leaving and those returning nearly doubled to 58,600 people.

Total Emigration: The CBS reported that 82,800 Israelis left permanently in 2023, the highest figure since 2010. In 2024, 82,700 residents left, and only 23,800 returned. Post-October 7 Spike: There was a 285% spike in permanent departures immediately following October 7, 2023. In October 2023 alone, 15,000 Israelis left.

Demographics: The majority of those leaving are young people and families, often between 25 and 44 years old. This group includes a significant number of highly skilled professionals, such as doctors, engineers, and high-tech workers, raising concerns about a "brain drain".

Returning Citizens: Around 360,000 Israelis who were abroad at the time of the attacks returned to Israel. The data on long-term migration is complex, with varying reports on the exact number of people who have permanently settled abroad versus those who are temporarily living elsewhere, often using dual citizenship to do so. Political uncertainty, security fears, and discontent with the government are cited as primary motivations for leaving.

Approximately 75,000 Israelis were projected to have left Israel in 2025,

“There’s probably close to a million Israelis who have already left Israel because of the war”

You just made that up.

Didn’t you?

Why?

Grok:

“Based on CBS data and analyses from sources like The Times of Israel, Haaretz, and the Knesset Research Center, approximately 82,000–85,000 Israelis emigrated permanently from October 7, 2023, to December 6, 2025.”

When you invent lies about Jews, do you usually aim to exaggerate by 1,000% (an order of magnitude)?

Well?
