That's actually quite bizarre, the birthplace of Christianity is only 2% Christian, the UK is 6% Muslim.
Why are Israelis furious?

Shows how effective the far right Israeli dictatorship is at religious cleansing.
Surprisingly about 18% of Israelis are Muslim. Either way, the Christians lose, in their homeland.
Trump should do something.

I would assume that's the over two million Arabs who have taken out Israeli citizenship, the bulk of whom would be of 'Palestinian' descent. The 2 million includes Drews and Bedouin.
Although there is no conscription for Israeli Arabs, usually at any time there's around 600 Arabs fighting for the IDF.

Nonsense.
We'd had decades of the Daily Mail shouting about the threat from Jewish refugees pouring and swarming into the country.
Don't confuse the poor chap with facts.
Bereaved families and opposition MKs formed a separate committee meeting in the Knesset in protest of the first debate advancing the government bill that aims to establish a politically appointed committee to investigate the failures surrounding the October 7 attacks.
Bereaved families, victims of the October 7 attacks, and parents of former hostages attended the panel.
“You're afraid of the truth,” bereaved father Itizik told the panel.

He is. He Gives the Israelis weapons to kill anyone that disagrees or does not fit in with their doctrine. Trump is about as Christian a Satan....
Global Tyrant: Establishes a one-world government and economy, demanding absolute allegiance, using persecution and control.
Religious Figure: Exalts himself in a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem, claiming divinity and leading a false religious system with a "false prophet".
Symbol of Lawlessness: Also known as the "Man of Lawlessness" or "Man of Sin," he embodies rebellion against God's laws.
.......sums up the orange rapist succinctly.
Clearly! (I was being facetious)
Israel will find itself diminished and no longer the secure regional hegemon if it maintains its current path, analysts and observers from within Israel and its diaspora have warned. The argument is that Israel, as it stands now, is unsustainable. And it is not so much about the way Israel treats Palestinians, but about division within Israel. Many secular Israelis are leaving the country – including entrepreneurs who have made Israel’s tech industry one of the best in the world. At the same time, the religious Zionist and ultra-Orthodox segment of society is growing rapidly, even as it comparatively brings in less money to the economy.
One of the major push factors for secular Israelis is the country’s deep political polarisation, exacerbated by war, the attempted weakening of the judiciary, and the endless machinations of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“[Israel] is no longer a ‘Jewish state’ in the sense that most Israeli Jews mean it, namely a state that privileges Jews over non-Jews but successfully fronts itself as a liberal democracy,” American political scientist Ian Lustick told Al Jazeera. “Israel is now an apartheidist state which includes all the people living between the river and the sea.”
While government laws blurring legal and physical residency make accurate numbers hard to gauge, the Israeli parliament’s own figures and those of think tanks show that increased emigration, particularly among secular Israelis, has significantly slowed the growth of Israel’s population. In all, driven by war and an increasingly polarised society, more than 150,000 people have left Israel in the past two years, and more than 200,000 since the current government took office in December 2022.
[Israeli economist] "Dan Ben-David estimates that Israel relies on around 300,000 members of a core elite to sustain it,” Hever added. “So if a significant number leave, it stops being a developed economy and becomes a developing economy … which it can’t really afford. It just doesn’t have the luxury of losing its economic power or its standard of living. For a colonial state to exist, it relies on occupying land – and that costs money.”
Some observers, such as Chatham House’s Yossi Mekelberg, were philosophical over the future of the country, or if it might collapse, saying: “When dictatorships come to an end, they break into pieces. Democracies are chipped away bit by bit until they change beyond recognition.”
“If Netanyahu and the ultra-right and ultra-Orthodox stay in power, this is the direction,” he said, “with the more liberal minded and socially mobile leaving the country”.
