#4 re the post - shows that the demographic transition marches on even in the occupied territories.

A. Pals aint as odd as people say - at least on this
B. Pal steadfastness strategy may not work
C. How does this compare to Gaza? Where social conditions are worse

How do you improve social conditions enough to encourage lower birth rates yet without lowering the incentive to emigrate? Ideal would be to focus on female education and employment, but control over local admin in PA hands, Israel doesnt have direct leverage. OTOH PA - as secularists, have an incentive to encourage that to shift society away from the classes and tendencies most likely to support Hamas.
