    That’s what war and siege does. People lose children a lot so they have more children.

    This is what it means to live in Gaza:

    0–14 years: 44.1% (male 415,746/female 394,195) 15–24 years: 21.3% (male 197,797/female 194,112) 25–54 years: 28.5% (male 256,103/female 267,285) 55–64 years: 3.5% (male 33,413/female 30,592) 65 years and over: 2.6% (male 24,863/female 22,607) (2018 est.)

      Maybe I don’t know, don’t bring more people into the world if they live on a literal battlefield? I don’t even want to bring kids into america right now. I can’t imagine how selfish one would have to be to bring a child into a warzone where their life expectancy is half the norm and they will suffer the entire time.
