I remember this post by @Alessan :

So we must not forget that Israelis (inc. Jews) have to fight religious fundamentalists, militants, terrorists, fascists, etc. at home, too. Or look for someplace they can live securely if things get bad enough (according to the [Times of Israel](https://www.timesofisrael.com/most-israelis-want-foreign-citizenship-passport-to-prosperity/) 56% of Israelis polled would like a foreign passport, and 27% specifically mentioned they were worried about the future of the State of Israel.)
