Bedouin Earns $164K from Israeli Child Allowances

Here's a stunning quote from an 'internationally acclaimed geostrategist', contained in an unrelated story:

The Beduin actually buy Palestinian women to marry, he said, and a large percentage of Bedouin children are mixed Bedouin and Palestinian....

The Bedouin actually make a business of having children, said Soffer, adding that even with the cuts in child allowances instituted by Binyamin Netanyahu when he was finance minister, a Bedouin with 30 children would receive about NIS 24,000 per month.

24,000 per month equals over $72,000 annually. One Bedouin man, however, currently has eight wives and 67 children. Over twice as many children translates into $164,000 per year. He is currently seeking a ninth wife:

Every night I decide which wife to go to. I really feel like an effendi in my home. My wives do whatever I want....

There are many women who wish to marry me and there is no lack of women, I never had a problem with such things.

If there was a Israeli government that cared a whit about quality of life, it would simply cap child subsidies at ten children. Particularly given that the Left claims to be motivated to cede Israeli territory because of demographic concerns.
