Israel abortion part 2
Part 1 https://t.me/IsraeliFacts/300
A major reason for the cultural acceptance of abortion in Israel is the view of halakha, Jewish law. While ultra- orthodox rabbis take a strict stance on end-of-life medical care
Under Jewish law, according to the Talmud, life begins at forty days and until then the fetus is no more than "water in the world.
Legal barriers to abortion impact the most vulnerable women, the least educated, those living in poverty in countries with limited access to contraception and high rates of maternal mortality and morbidity.
Over the last decade and a half, there has been a moderate decline in ultra-Orthodox fertility rates in Israel, from 7.5 live births per woman between 1998 and 2004, to 6.6 between 2007 and 2019. Among other Jewish women in Israel, the fertility rate for 2018–2019 was 4 live births for national-religious women; 3.2 for traditional-religious women; 2.5 for traditional non-religious women; and 2.2 for secular women https://perma.cc/AA5E-KM5E
The share of haredim as a percentage of Israel’s total population is predicted to be 14% in 2024; 19% in 2039, and 27% in 2059. By that year, the haredi community is expected to constitute 35% of the Jewish population in Israel https://perma.cc/ATV6-H32J
