In an opinion piece, Dolores Peers, a Yeoman at Retired U.S. Coast Guard, and a prolific digital creator, provides data that shows the depth of the woes facing Israel in its continual War on Palestine.

Her data is reprinted here. It speaks for itself.

1 Unprecedented economic losses

• Military losses: $34 billion.
• Total economic losses: $67 billion.
• Budget deficit: $40 billion (the largest in Israel’s history).

In 2024:

• 60,000 companies shut down, resulting in massive job losses.
• The tourism sector declined by 70%, causing a $5 billion loss.
• The construction sector lost $4 billion, with over 70 construction firms ceasing operations.

2 Forced displacement of Israelis

• 43,000 Israelis have fled their homes, particularly from settlements near Gaza and the northern border.
• The war has triggered a mass exodus of Israelis out of the country, significantly impacting Israel’s demographic balance.

3 Unprecedented psychological crisis

• 900,000 Israelis suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) – a record-breaking figure.
• One-third of Israelis are struggling with depression or other mental health disorders.
• Alcohol consumption has risen by 25%, indicating a surge in substance abuse.
• Sleeping pill sales skyrocketed by 180%, meaning Israelis can no longer sleep without medical aid.
• In the Israeli army, 21 suicides were recorded in 2024 – and the real number is probably much higher than reported.

4 A reverse Jewish exodus

• 82,700 Jews left Israel in 2024, the highest emigration rate in decades.
• In comparison, 70,000 Jews moved to Israel in 2002 from abroad. Today, the trend has completely reversed – Israel is witnessing a mass exodus rather than an influx.

5 Political and moral collapse

• Its global image has been completely destroyed, as the world now recognises its occupation and crimes against humanity.
• Many countries are distancing themselves diplomatically from Israel, with international condemnation rising.
• The illusion of a “democratic and peaceful Israel” has crumbled, revealing its true face as an apartheid state.

6 Internal revolt and elite divisions

• High-ranking officials, including a former Mossad chief and a former police commissioner, have openly turned against the government.
• Families of Israeli prisoners and captives have set up permanent protest camps outside the Ministry of Justice, demanding an end to the war.
• There is deep political division among Israeli leaders on how to handle the war, risking a potential collapse of the government itself. This proves that Israel is not only losing externally – it is also imploding from within.
