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.

Exactly, their population is increasing at an extremely slow pace, even though they have a high fertility rate. They aren't able to live much long, or are forced to leave and live as refugees in foreign lands.

And this, of course, is the fault of Israel's pursuit of the slowest ethnic cleanising in world history.
Pffffffffft!
Edit: In case you truly aren't aware, a growth rate of 2.25% is pretty high. Especially for a place to which no one in their right mind would want to immigrate.
