On the eve of the Jewish New Year, Israel’s population stands at 9.246 million people, the Central Bureau of Statistics reported, marking an annual population growth rate of 1.6 percent (150,000 people).
The past year saw the birth of 170,000 babies, as well as the death of around 44,000 people. Another 25,000 people moved to the country, 20,000 of whom were classified as olim chadashim (new immigrants).
According to the CBS, 6.841 million of the people in Israel are Jewish (74 percent of the population), 1.946 million are Arab (21 percent) and 459,000 (5 percent) are members of other groups, such as non-Arab Christians, members of other religions and people without religious classification.
The CBS predicted that Israel’s population will reach 10 million people by the end of 2024, 15 million people by the end of 2048 and 20 million by the end of 2065.

Israel's population growth rate stood at 2.0% in 2015, more than three times faster than the OECD average of around 0.6%. The world average is about 1%. Israel's average is over three children per woman, rising steadily since Israel became a country in 1948.

A million more than the five boroughs of New York City. Of course they will gain five million new citizens once they annex the West Bank.

Well, I am sure some Palestinians are not Muslims. Also a lot of Israelis are already Muslims. I have not looked at the numbers in years, but about 20%.
