| shio said: I was wrong that the population of Gaza Strip declining, however it is still much worse than ever. 45% of the population in Gaza Strip are kids of 14 years or younger!! Their parents are killed by the israeli government or die due to the extremely harsh conditions of hunger, no medical help, etc... |
Er... no. It's basic demographics. They have such a young population because they have a very high birthrate. The Palestinian Territories are ranked 31st in the world by fertility, and their age structure is very similar to other countries with a similar birthrate.
