These children, and the adults in Gaza are not Palestinians. The term "Palestine/Palestinian" was initially given to the Jews hundreds of years ago. Somehow it has morphed into meaning the Arabs who fled Jerusalem before the war. There are no Palestinians in Gaza, they are ALL Arabs. And they are Arabs who are not being absorbed into their mother countries. The mother countries don't want them, and are not willing to take them in and give them jobs because then the mother countries would lose their political pawn, the poor "refugees", who are now in their 3rd generation. The original refugees have all died.
