No offense to whomever lives there and loves it, but who would want to move to Israel? That whole region is ugly AF and likely to never get better.
My little brother went on Birthright when he was 16. One of his friends (from Boca Raton, FL) was so brainwashed he went back a few years later and joined the Israel military. I never went because I was scared of going to a war zone.
They should stay over there if they're so loyal
Also 30 thousand* (says the company who's best interest is to lie and push bigger numbers to drive up interest)
A study published in May by Brandeis University and funded by Birthright found that last year’s cohort are “much more connected to Israel, and much more likely to identify with the political right.” Birthright participants were also “more likely to provide a counterargument to claims that Israel is committing genocide” after the trip.
So it's really the Zionist Foundation. Gotcha.
Dont let them back.
My cousin did it. Fuck that.

Wow, might as well just change their name to Propagandists R Us... or Zionists for Netan-yayhoo...
