CROSSFIREARABIA – A latest Tel Aviv University study shows the number of those leaving Israel is rocketing, stating the waves of migration starting in early 2023 and in 2025, reached unprecedented levels. The study warns that if this continues it will negatively affect the economy and security of the state, stating the number of Israelis departing in the first three months of 2025 was 90,922 persons compared to 91,499 in 2024 and 86,509 in 2023 which is shocking. The study also shows the number of those departing between 2023 and 2025 was around 270,000, a yearly average of 90,000. The figure was about 60,000 yearly between 2010 and 2019 except for 2013-2015 when those departing stood at 183,219 individuals. The authors of the study are alarmed, warning of a “point of collapse” in the light of the fact that doctors, engineers and academics and those with Phds are part of the professionals classes who are leaving Israel and are a lynchpin of its economy. The figures for 2026 will be out next year. See full article

Moshe Ya’alon: ‘Israelis Are Becoming ‘Judeo-Nazis’

As per The Palestine Project

“Turning Israelis into Judeo-Nazis”. Moshe Ya’alon described what is happening in the occupied territory as a “disgrace for generations”.

“The Israeli government is encouraging Jewish pogromists to dispossess Palestinians of their land through abuse, including shooting at them,” Ya’alon told Ynet (June 14, 2026)

Ya’alon spent decades in the Israeli military and is known to have taken part in the 1982 invasion of Lebanon, the violent suppression of the first and second Palestinian intifadas, and the 2014 war on Gaza.

But in recent years, the 75-year-old has adopted a more critical tone towards the current government, accusing it in 2024 of carrying out ethnic cleansing in Gaza.

Reflecting on his time as army commander in the West Bank, Ya’alon said that he had acted to prevent the occupation from turning Israelis into “Judeo-Nazis”, as the late Israeli scholar Yeshayahu Leibowitz had once warned.

“Today, I can’t say he was wrong”
