And, just out of curiosity, what are the fertility rates in Israel and its surrounding neighbors...? Any disparity there?
Have superior numbers helped these people in any wars so far?
Of course, Israel, per the CIA, has had a fertility rate of
2.7 children born per woman, while Syria has displayed
2.94. Jordan, Israel's ally, has displayed a fertility rate of
3.03 children per woman. On the other hand, Lebanon, populated by Israel's enemies, maintains a level of
1.77 children per woman, and Iran, land of the furious Ayatollahs, is at
1.8. Sure, Iran is not Israel's immediate neighbor, but we all know that they profess to be Israel's largest enemy.
Not that it matters. Demography continues not being destiny.
But why do you ask? THe CIA World Factbook is available to you as well as it is to me.
