Do Israelis want a better life? Do they really think Zionism is worth it?
The average Israeli makes 8,189 Israeli shekels per month, which is $2,278 when converted into Australian dollars.
Thats less than the Australian minimum wage of $2,774 a month ($569 per week). McDonalds workers make that salary in Australia, and the Australian average wage is $5248 a month for full time working adults, and just under $4000 a month for all workers. Which is basically double the Israeli average wage.
Is Zionism really worth it? Why not just encourage emigration from Israel to Australia, Canada and the USA and just give back the Palestinians their land.
Would Israelis really rather live in Israel or Australia, Canada or the USA and have a way better salary and living conditions?

Australias average wage isnt $45,000 a year. Its $63,000 for fulltime workers and $52,000 for all workers, Also, Luxembourg has such a tiny population and it has a debt of $4,000,000 per person, Australia’s debt is only $42,000 per person.

According to that link you posted the average wage is $50,000 in Luxembourg:

And you are the one stating that the average wage in Luxembourg is $70,000??!
Anyways, you’re distracting from the point Im making, Israelis generally know English and they could immigrate to Australia, Canada, USA whenever they want, and the governments in those countries welcome Jewish immigrants like they always have.
