clergyofberlin: The massive Russian influx (of which many or mostly are non-Jews) to Israel is what kept them from a higher mk representation. It is remarkable that despite millions of new Russians in Israel, the chareidim *still* didn’t become a lesser percentage of the population and Kenesset. They managed this by their massive population growth.
P.S. I told you this same point five years ago.
P.P.S. The number of DL families with a lot of children are today a very small percent of their population. You are mostly limited to the Merkaz HaRav types and not the average DL family.
