The result of your idiotic, disastrous, murderous land grabs and subsequent subjugation of an entire people.

sterile smooth pebble in the wombs of women after they have two children like is done to camels to prevent conception.

in their overcrowded cities on the land they stole from us!

Politically motivated numbers: garbage in - garbage out. The political and propaganda objective of the census is clear - confirm that equal number of Arabs and Jews live in the area between the River and See. The question is why they opted not to inflate the East Jerusalem numbers? Is it because the real numbers are well known by the Jerusalem municipality?

Palestinian census: garbage in - garbage out. The main objective - to prove that as many Arabs as Jews live between the River and See. Why then East Jerusalem numbers were not inflated? Is it because the Jerusalem municipality has the real number of residents?

Who have done this search ? Palestinians. Why ? to inflate the numbers to manipulate opinion in israel. To increase the spin the same palestinians criticise themselves to make believe they are honnest... Don t be fool ! The census in 1999 was blatantly too high, and this census say palestinian population is 50% more important than in 1999 !!!! It is a bad joke and a leftist- moderate palestinian conjoint spin, you just have to read the article in haaretz to be convinced.

and force them into an inferior position.

This is why the smarter arabs succeed, by day they make war and at night they make babies! The secular Jews are busy supporting the Trojan and Duralex Companies or resorting to gay sex and not producing babies.

for the defeat.

This census is a continuing propoganda fantasy that plays on the Womb-Bomb fears, of whose numbers were discredited many times over by reputable research. For a semblance of journallistic integrity, I suggest there be some research & cross confirmation, rather than publication verbatim of such an inflammatory article, issued by the renowned souce of exemplary journalistic accuracy & integrity, Associated Press (AP). I recommend the following, which include research presented to the US Congress, Begin-Sadat Institute of Strategic Studies, & the Herzliya Conference, & previous articles by C Glick in JPost: http://www.pademographics.com/Herzliya%20Presentation.ppt#800,1,Slide 1 http://www.pademographics.com/Glick-AIDRG.htm http://www.pademographics.com/voodoo%20azure%20print.htm http://www.pademographics.com/glick%20jerusalem.htm http://www.pademographics.com/gy_bchor.htm (Hebrew) It has been reported repeatedly (see above sources), as contradiction to the "Demographic Bomb Scare" that: a) The "Palestinian" population is vastly overstated for political & aid purposes, probably by about 1/3; b) A large proportion are Arabs who migrated from other ME countries, want to work in Israel, & would return to their countries if found; c) Birth rates inevitably wane as standards of living rise, which they are, regardless of political pressures. As technology & urbanisation continue, people do not need 7-12 children to "tend the farm". The Pal birth rate has been declining for some time. Besides, they keep blowing the kids up... “The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity… Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people… to oppose Zionism.” -- Zuheir Muhsein, the late Military Department head of the PLO and member of its Executive Council Godefroi, USA, Friday Jan 25, 2008 The West Bank (WB or J&S) is ~4000 km/2. All of pre 67 Israel was ~20,000 km/2. Subtract the largely empty Negev & Galil, leaving, say ~8000 km/2. Israel's population 1960's-70's was 3 to 3.5 million. Is the contention that the same population that lived all along the coast, Gush Dan, & Jerusalem lives in HALF that area? Preposterous. We are lucky there aren't more sophisticated propogandists available, like Tokyo Rose, Lord Ha Ha, & Goebbels. If there were, Israelis would be lining up to walk into the sea like lemmings... (sic)

Not bad for people who are supposedly the victims of an Israeli genocide. In fact, this must be unprecedented in the annals of human history...a genocide that results in a population growth.

"US Congress Hears Testimony About Inflated PA Demographics" The findings of an exhaustive study on Palestinian Authority (PA) population statistics claims that the Palestinian Authority has deliberately misled U.S. and international humanitarian efforts by inflating their population figures to attract billions of dollars in relief funds. Bennet Zimmerman, Project Leader of a recent study entitled "Arab Population in the West Bank and Gaza: The Million Person Gap," presented the findings to the Congress this week. Zimmerman addressed the House International Relations Subcommittee on the Middle East which has been investigating U.S. funding of the Palestinian Authority. "American tax dollars and other international humanitarian aid have been based on inflated population numbers which have been accepted without question by governments and aid agencies," he said in an interview with the World Net Daily. "Our researchers pointed out that money has been spent to help Palestinians who were double-counted, never born or not present in the West Bank and Gaza." According to Zimmerman, the current official population for the West Bank and Gaza, which is listed as 3,279,141, is a highly inflated figure that does not reflect the demographic reality, which he estimates at 1.4 million in the West Bank and 1 million in Gaza, totaling 2.4 million. "The U.S. and Europeans have for years accepted entirely exaggerated data. Now Congress has some very tough questions to ask, including how its own State Department and the CIA could have been duped and what do to regarding future aid," stated Zimmerman. Israeli demographic analyst Yoram Ettinger concurs with the findings in Zimmerman’s report and claims that there is no credence to the myth of a potential Arab majority in Israel. “And so it turns out that the demographic knife is not really hanging over our heads. In 1900 Jews constituted just eight percent of the population west of the Jordan, in 1948 it was 48 percent, and today we are 60 percent. Without Gaza, the Jewish majority is stable at 67 percent within [including] Judea and Samaria,” Ettinger maintains... http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/100008

reminds me of the CNN coverage of "burials" of tens of palis at the onset of OSLO WAR. It turned out the same guy way taken back and forwars on a strecher to the cementery... until an Israeli camera caught the guy raising from the tomb , lying like dead, being burried again, and so on. These counts are a joke. A left winger told a group of us that it's impossible at best to count arabs in their villages. No steet names, no house numbers, no location. He felt he was entering the same houses back and again. On top he thinks he saw most people twice shifting from house to house to be counted time and again. By the way plenty of room in Jordan Have a nice week

Guys,you are supposed to be journalists,not palis propagandists We already have shalom arshav,haaretz,many arab mks who ridicule themselves with such figures who have been rebuffed SUPER YAWN....

So much for the slow motion genocide the antisemites claim the Israelis are committing.

If the pal populace has increased 30% in 10 years,then it sort of reveals the lies of all the arab apologists,bleeding hearts that are constantly accusing Israel of genocide.

Only the ridiculous Israeli press would publish such utter nonsense. These figures are inflated by 25%. If not,then where do these people live?

against Israel/Jews.

I'm sure there are a lot more palis. Especially in J.em. They just want to keep the figures as low as poss in order not to create alarm... [ironic]

It would almost be funny, the fact that these numbers show absolutely no truth to them. But that is the way in the Arab world. Tell lies long enough to make them true, rather than tell the truth long enough to make peace. I have no doubt that the numbers are exaggerated at least 25%. Afterall, the number of Arabs leaving Judea and Samaria is accelerating. Soon there will be two states, Israel and Jordan Palestine, and this mistake of trying to create another arab Palestine will disappear. At present demographics and conditions, I would estimate this will happen in 20-40 years.

If Israel's not-religious population could make more babies, it will be good. And if religious population could go to military service too, it will be great too.

The so-called Palestinians have been doing this since the founding of the State when, aided and abetted by UNRWA, they were claiming nearly everybody and their mother as refugees..including people who were already dead.

What is the % increase in Pal population year over year?

can they increase like rabbits? How come their females have litters of 10 to 15?
