Yoram Ettinger (Hebrew: יורם אטינגר) is an Israeli researcher, diplomat, writer, lecturer and consultant to Israeli and US legislators and their staffers. He is an expert on US-Israel relations, Middle East affairs and Jewish-Arab demography. Ettinger is a co-founder of the America-Israel Demographic Research Group (AIDRG), which has documented a 2 million gap in the number of Arabs in Judea & Samaria and Gaza. Ettinger has claimed that the number of Palestinian Arabs living to the west of the Jordan River (in the West Bank, Israel, and the Gaza Strip) is only 4.8 million, rather than the 6.2 million derived from official Israeli figures. His demographic forecasts are widely cited by Israeli right-wing politicians in support of annexation of the West Bank, because the left argues that annexation would put an end to Jews being in the majority in Israel. But his figures are disputed by professional demographers.
