GAME OVER: 130 Top Economists Warn of “Israel's” Imminent FULL COLLAPSE

In a dire warning, 130 of Israel’s leading economists have sounded the alarm over government policies they say are pushing Israel towards disaster. The economists highlighted several critical issues:

🔴 Economic and Military Burden: The policies impose an unsustainable economic and military burden on a shrinking part of the population. They stress that increasing military reserve duties and continued funding for haredi education, which does not include core studies, are particularly problematic.

🔴 Risk of Mass Emigration: If these trends continue, highly educated and skilled citizens, who bear the economic and security burdens, may emigrate. This would leave behind a less productive population, worsening the situation in a vicious cycle.

🗣 Prof. Eitan Sheshinski and Others: Prominent figures like Prof. Eitan Sheshinski and Prof. Manuel Trajtenberg are among the signatories urging immediate reforms. They call for changes to the haredi education system, ending incentives for non-work, and reducing disparities in the security burden.

💬 "Genuine Alarm": The letter describes the situation as a "genuine alarm," warning that if those bearing the burden perceive an irreversible decline, national collapse will follow.

📉 A Vicious Cycle: The process would particularly harm the haredi sector, which relies heavily on public funding. The collapse would exacerbate disparities and lead to a downward spiral.

🌍 “Israel has No Future”: The economists demand urgent action to save Israel from future collapse, emphasizing that history will not forgive inaction.

⭕️I resigned on Wednesday, 15 May – the 76th anniversary of the Nakba – because I could no longer serve at the pleasure of a president who refuses to stop another catastrophe.

⭕️My former boss is the person who makes me feel most unsafe as an American Jew.

⭕️The president of the United States has persistently corrupted the idea of Jewish safety, weaponizing my community as a shield to dodge accountability for his role in this atrocity.

⭕️I am certain that Jews are not better protected by a war effort, endorsed by the United States and waged in the name of Jewish safety, that furthers a genocide of a whole people collectively framed as “our enemy”.
