Israel has 9,327,000 citizens, more than 11 times its population of 806,000 at the time of the establishment of the modern Jewish state in 1948.

‘The facts on the ground are irreversible. The percentage of Jews in the West Bank is equivalent to 33 million Americans,’ said Baruch Gordon, director of West Bank Jewish Population Stats.

Israel’s population is also being boosted by a decrease in emigration, according to the Central Bureau of Statistics.

On its 70th Independence Day, Israel can be proud of its booming population and thriving economy.

The concept that Israel is, ostensibly, facing a demographic time bomb is either dramatically mistaken or outrageously misleading.

Welcome to the home of the Jewish people!

Israel’s diverse population is half the size of Metropolitan New York City and numbers only two percent of the inhabitants of the Middle East.

The Central Bureau of Statistics released its traditional statistics report on the citizens of Israel in honor of Yom Ha’Atzmaut, Israeli Independence Day, which is celebrated this year on Wednesday night and Thursday.

Contrary to what many will have you believe, that one sector of the population will eventually vastly outnumber the other, the gap between Jewish and Arab birthrates in Israel has significantly declined over the last decade, according to new data released by Israel’s Central Bureau of Statistics.

Israel's population has grown steadily and statistics indicate that this trend will continue, a report ahead of the Jewish New Year demonstrates.
