It's ironic that the Palestinian civil registry is maintained by Israel and issues different colors of identification cards and vehicle number plates to discriminate against Palestinians as varying tiers of subhumans. No one really knows how many people are dead because often there isn't anyone left in previously large families to update the registry during the years of systematic and wanton bombing of civilian "safe" areas.

Or would you rather prefer to discuss it in the context of 1300-year-long Arab occupation of the lands they absolutely do not belong to?
Or maybe you want to know why even using the word "Palestine" contributes to a 2000-year-long genocide on the jewish population of Israel?
