"The beautiful Mediterranean nation, nestled on the east coast of the Iberian Peninsula…" (1:08)
Say, what?! Portugal is in the west of the Iberian Peninsula; and it is bathed by the Atlantic, not the Mediterranean!
And, "In the country's capital, Lisbon, rentals start at about 650 Dollars a month"
For that amount of money, I doubt one may find even a room in a private house (unless it is being sub-let by immigrants — and that would be unlawful!). Also, I find it extremely doubtful you could "snag a rental for as low as 375 Dollars a month" in Porto! For that amount of money, all you might find would be an apartment (or house) in a very rural part of Portugal. If you're lucky!
I also find it quite extraordinary what that Israeli young lady said at minute 2:38. In Portugal, there are at present a lot of job vacancies, mostly in the manufacture industries, but also in the services and healthcare areas. But, of course, most of these types of immigrants as shown in this video prefer to create little niches instead of subjecting themselves to the labor laws and traditions of the host country… and good luck to them.
And FYI, Portugal is not another Mediterranean country where people talk loudly, etc.! Portugal is neither on the Mediterranean nor do people talk loudly, as a rule! To compare Portugal to Italy or Greece shows a tremendous lacking of insight!
And, "Illegal buildings"?!! (5:53) Give me a break! Do you really think Portugal is a third-world country and does not have tight control over fraud?!!
Extremely poor reportage, if you ask me…
Life in many Arabic countries neighbouring Israel is way cheaper!
Israelis needs to be more spiritual than being gold diggers!
Also they should slice more money from filthy rich people and help poor with food, housing, and health care! Thanks
Infomercial for Israelis seeking business opportunties elsewhere. Sad. Have we not yet learned the curse of exile for Jews.
Portugal will soon become the Las Vegas. Looks what happen when Californians started the move to Las Vegas. Now la Las Vegas residents are leaving because they can no longer afford living in Las Vegas.
There's no language barrier in Portugal. They all speak Portuguese!
Yeah. Because Palestine is not Thier land
Now it's time to invade hoorayy GO ISRAEL!!!
Oh dear, soon they will takeover the financial and banking sectors in Portugal and then they will take over the govt. Where have I seen this before….USA AIPAC.
Only the thing is this journalist is really hot , revealing cleavages
prices won't remain low if a lot of israeli's move, pushing up house prices for locals.
on a side note, isn't it interesting who is allowed to want a 'better life' despite coming from countries that are developed and considered to have a high standard of living as opposed to migrants from developing nations who are looked down upon.
Tel-Aviv area is well overpriced, but move 50 km away from center city, and home prices are similar to that of Porto. There must be more to their story.
That doesn't make any sense unless you have a job offer. Moving itself is extremely expensive. Also in 1536 most Jews were expelled from Portugal because they were Jews. The good news is that Portugal now offers citizenship to the descendants of those who were expelled. It's not like it's a reoccurring theme throughout world history.
Atlantic coast not Mediterranean
This video very struggling all the way ….
Yes go home you bunch of thieves. Also, it’s called Palestine 🇵🇸
Nothing like Israeli Jews returning to place of inquisition of their persecuted ancestors. Lol
The irony of interviewing a couple living as expats due to the high cost of living in their own country, yet deciding to run a real estate startup in their new country
It's a shame the cost of living in Israel is so high. It is because of our Defense and Security budgets. The whole idea of Israel, is that we build it. The problem is that we don't.
Smart move for Israelis. No missles and Jihadi knives to dodge.
It really is amazes me how much Israel Jews look like Arabs
Good News, hopefully you guys all leave occupied Palestine peacefully and leave the country back to its real indigenous owner, that is refreshing news!
"…nestled on the East coast of the Iberian Peninsular…" doesn't anyone proof-read this before it's read?
How embarrassing for the israeli government
How sad
The high cost of living in Israel will be the downfall of israel
Inflation is higher in Portugal 🤨
Portugal will be trashed in no time. Turned into ghettos.
Don't forget if you can prove that a long lost relative use to live in Portugal during a certain period, you can request Portuguese citizenship.
Alles sehr schön. Aber zuerst zusammen die Nummern 10 und 1. Eine gedangsie.ONLINE Brünette und eine andereo Blondine. Es wäre unfair, wenn ich 4 wählen würde
This article is a monument to stupidity it starts with Brazilian music in Portugal (Portugal is not Brasil FYI) and then the pseudo jornalist says “the Mediterranean nation” Portugal is not bathed by the Mediterranean!!! Then she gives the prices of rental in Dollars when Portugal has the Euro!!! Then they put Capoeira music from Brazil😂😂😂 The law of Sephardic jews is not for North Africans and Ottoman Empire Jews although those are the ones applying (Sephardic Portuguese Jews were actually located in north Europe) could the journalist get anything right????
If the muslims start to move there….that will be the end of this country too.
What about your childrens Jewish education?
Is that ok we dont want another israel ghetto do we.
Really..or is it..the escalating attack's from Hamas and Hezbollah.. just imagine a nation that usurping land from Palestinians..but don't have a people to wanna live there… interesting
So this is how Israel will fall
May God richly bless Israel. Amen.
