Olmert’s Ongoing Flip-Flop on Demographics

.

Commentary;

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has often claimed in recent years, citing and cleaving to P.A. (sic) demographics data, that Israel must hand over lands to the Arabs out of fear that the Arabs will essentially destroy Israel by out-numbering the Jews. These claims have again and again been been found irrefutably overstated by at least 1.5 million by evidence presented by demographics experts Bennett Zimmerman, Roberta Seid, Michael Weiss and Yoram Ettinger.

But, in doing a search of YouTube videos looking for different information, this author stumbled upon this Nightline interview which took place over 20 years ago with both then MK Ehud Olmert and Rabbi Meir Kahane, z’l. In that interview, Ehud Olmert attempts to refute Rabbi Kahane by saying that the chances of the Arabs outnumbering the Jews is remote.

One can contrast Olmert’s statements in this decades old confrontation with Rav Kahane on Nightline with his more recent claims as rationale for handing over Jewish land and draw conclusions as to the true, sinister, apparently anti-religious, anti-Torah bias and agenda laying beneath the politics of consolidation, weakness and appeasement which the “too tired” Olmert now espouses.
