The "west's" standards are not world standards; come to arab countries and see how many children an average family has, then ask how many families have 5 children or more.

Do you honestly think that you can have an exponential increase in population and not run into any problems, in Palestine or anywhere?

For zionist rabbis killing children of enemy is as they would slaughter animals. They claims they holy Torah give right for them to do so.

Yes we'd noticed that you hate the Jews, you don't need to post in every thread if it's not relevant to the topic.

House prices going up, overcrowding in schools, finding more food and drinkable water, those sorts of problems?
Sure.

But 500 children dying as collateral damage? I don't think that's a "regular" overpopulation problem.

The real problem isn't with exponential population increase. It's your home shrinking in size and which idiot(s are) causing it.

I mean, I have a big family and the only real problem we face is not being able to get our 5 fruits a day - do you know how much fruit we would have to buy for just one week?! LOTS!

Anyway, I think I've derailed this thread. So er, get back on topic.

Well no that's probably more to do with folk fighting a war within a city against a better armed and equipped force.
In WWII 22m out of the 50m+ who died were soldiers. You can't have a war without civilian casualties because there are no global basketball courts of battle where two military forces can fight it out without affecting anyone else. Fighting your battles from between houses is asking for trouble though.

My comment wasn't really about the conflict specifically, but crayons statement that arab countries can expect to have 5+ kids because it's tradition.

The difference is that they've got room and they don't go complaining to others when they run out of it.

Well actually they should have room, given Palestine is their home land and they should be free to go and come as they please and have children to their heart's content.. it isn't their fault they are occupied!

I love your twisted logic!

Ok looks like I need to clarify it. When Israel marches into Palestininan land with bulldozers, Hamas is in the way - not Fatah. As long as Hamas exists, they halt Israel from stealing land (via charging the streets). Unfortunately, the way Hamas goes about this leads to the deaths of countless civilians on either side. I agree with Hamas in being a road block that prevents Israel from bulldozing Palestinian homes (and forcing the citizens out!). But, I disagree with their methodology in doing so.

According to latest news, during last month in Hamas controlled Gaza Israel destroyed 4 000 buildings and seriously damaged 20 000. 50 000 Gazans are without home and 400 000 are without running water. Bravo road block, bravo. +o(

Yes they should by they don't, you don't have families with 7 children on a 350 square kilometers strip based on should.
 
well their hope of reclamation is their children. and insha'Allah they will have enough to displace the cockroach settler state!
 
I understand your logic, but when people have children they don't have them so that they would lose them, people have children to enjoy seeing them grow into happy well educated adults, it's not about numbers when it comes to mothers and fathers.

I think that palestinians have a lot of children because they know that if they don't, noone will be left in Gaza! People get killed everyday there...

My dad used to tell me, that a few decades ago, in Lebanon, many children died because of the war, disease...etc. So people had many children. He told me that when my grandpa still had five children, people would ask him: Don't you wanna have more children? Because they knew that some of these children will die and they were right, my grandfather did lose five of his kids.
Now that things have changed, people have 2 or 3 kids only...so it is about numbers, when you are not sure wether your kids will reach adulthood or not.

In southern Lebanon, they still have a lot of kids for the same reason. Many of those kids die in the Hezbollah-israeli wars. I've heard of families, who lost all their children in the 2006 war and now they want to have other children...it's about survival.

I don't really agree with their logic, I'd rather have 2 children and take good care of them than having 6 children and losing half of them. But anyways, that's how they think...

This is actually a very good point, it's how things should be and it's how most educated people think nowadays everywhere including Gaza :thumbs_up
