Channel 14 reported Sunday evening comments by a senior professor at Bar-Ilan University, who argued that high birthrates contribute to the outbreak of wars and called on Israeli society to reduce its fertility rate. The professor's remarks were shared by the broadcaster's journalists Maggie Tabibi and Ishay Fridman. No further context was provided in the initial report. The statement appears to be a social-policy argument rather than a security analysis, though it intersects with demographic debates in Israel's public discourse. The claim has not been corroborated by additional sources.
