Should I permanently leave Israel?

I’m not sure if this is the right community for this question, but it says “no stupid question” so here goes. I’m an Israeli who now lives in the US, but I am considering permanently residing in the US or elsewhere (perhaps somewhere in Europe or Canada) because I’ve become kinda disillusioned with Israel for a variety...

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Probably not

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Ironically I’m firmly in the middle on the conflict compared to a lot of what I’ve seen from the online left, but compared to most israeli policymakers, I am far left. It’s weird.

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Less so since I’m not a citizen of those countries.

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

I assume Trump won’t win again so its better here in the US than in Israel where the Israeli Trump keeps winning.

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Prob correct

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Why so?

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Yeah I gave birth to a son here in the US, which I think is a better environment for him than Israel personally.

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Lol

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Yeah I’m just center-left, but that’s “far left” or even “extreme” left in the Israeli politics now…

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Thanks :)

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

How do you mean?

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Well I’m fairly politically active, so kinda

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

The US is helping Israel’s war in Gaza yes, but so are most European countries to be fair. I guess I meant more that the war is far away and won’t affect me and my kid personally over here.

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

I think he’s going to lose because he just is more hated than he is liked. If he wins, then I’ll eat my words obviously

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Thanks for this response. Israel also is facing AFAIK a slower brain drain because Israelis with education and money tend to move.

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Yeah I know anti semitism is on the rise, which does make me weary, but there’s also lots of institutional support against racism and anti semitism

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

You make some very good points, giving me something to think about. Thanks

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

True

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Thank you :)

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

I speak Spanish as well as English and Hebrew, so I guess there’s always Argentina or Chile.

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Yeah all good points. I guess it just seems like the rest of the West is still doing better than Israel.

ashkenaziisraeli OP ,

Oh I see. Yeah Ive heard Canada is horribly expensive.
