According to a 2014 study by the Taub Center for Social Policy Studies in Israel, the Jewish state has "one of the highest birthrates in the developed world."
A well known theatre actor from Belgium told one of his country’s best-read weeklies that he is infuriated by the “procreation policies of the Jews in Israel.”
Wannes Cappelle, 37, made his remarks in an interview published Sunday in De Zondag.

“Those procreation policies of the Jews in Israel, to name one example, is simply a crime. It infuriates me,” Cappelle was quoted as saying in response to a question on whether he can “understand fear of the other” following what the interviewer defined as “A Trump, a Brexit, the acceptance of the far right in Europe.”
Before mentioning Israel, Wannes, who also is an award-winning musician, said “I find it difficult. Opposite [Donald Trump] you also have Bernie Sanders, which inspires hope. I try my best to be hopeful. Most of all I worry over overpopulation. The human race is too stupid to keep it under control.”
According to a 2014 study by the Taub Center for Social Policy Studies in Israel, the Jewish state has “one of the highest birthrates in the developed world, with an average of three children per woman compared to an average of 1.7 children in the OECD,” the 35-member Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.
Israel, a nation of 8.5 million, has a “government policy that encourages births in various ways,” the report also says, noting that “the state provides a relatively supportive environment for working mothers, leading to relatively high participation in the workforce by mothers aged 25-44.”
Israel is the only country in the world, according to the report, where insured female citizens who cannot conceive receive for nearly no payment an unlimited number of costly procedures aimed at achieving conception. This coverage, which is given to all citizens, Jewish and otherwise, is provided to women under 45 with fewer than two children.
Arab women have a slightly higher birthrate than Jewish ones in Israel, according to Central Bureau of Statistics data from 2014.
Egypt, Israel’s southern neighbor and a nation of nearly 90 million, has a rising birthrate of 3.5 children per woman, according to an article published last year by The Economist
Exactly. He’s nothing but a poser. Let’s see him put his money where he mouth is.
It is a deranged mentality - thanks to western political, media and academic elites - when someone ascribes “criminality” to a nation’s birth rate.
Creepy little guy. There's not much about him online aside from a very short wiki page, a couple lines on IMDb (actors' page) and that he has a twitter account. He won an Academy Award for a short film that no one has seen. Rotten Tomatoes has the film listed but zip, zero, nada on it. He might as well be someone's dog walker who accidentally got interviewed by the local evening news for all his opinion matters.
The EU is a nasty smear on the record of Western Civilization. Like someone wiped their backside on an illuminated manuscript.
Wow.
He even has the *look*.
Just shave off his peach fuzz, remove his earrings, put him in a brownshirt, and there you are.
Why do people listen to anything that actors say? They are paid excessively to lie (in other words, to act like someone else). They have no special knowledge that needs to be distributed, but can memorize well. Big deal. Why don’t we just read good authors and let the masses pay to be indoctrinated?
Ping.

Darn MeanWestTexan stole my comment.
“Oh No! A well known Belgian theater actor is speaking out against Israel!”
Well, look at the damage done by a two-bit Austrian painter of the same stripe.
Of course, you are both right. If that is the case (and it probably is) then our entire left-wing oriented entertainment industry is a massive conglomeration of Hitlers and Booths...
I am good with that characterization.
Somehow, the Jews are always to blame for something, especially when things are going wrong at home, as in the synthetic and failing country of Belgium. A century from now though, Israel will be prosperous, free, populous, Jewish, and full of life, while Belgium will have long ago dissolved into its antagonistic communities of French and German speakers residing in a minor province of what will have become Eurabia.
