1. Isreal is utterly dependent on American aid and American support is dwindling.

2. Jewish people are not the majority in Israel/Palestine. No government may long stand without the consent of the majority of the governed.

3. The B.D.S. movement. Israel simply cannot afford to become an international pariah.

4. A large percentage of Israel's Jewish population will leave when Israel is no longer able to support a First-World standard of living.

5. Hubris. The Israeli government is unwilling to make the necessary concessions and reforms.

American pity for that failed state is the only thing keeping it afloat.
