What is Palestinian?

Palestine is a geographic region in Western Asia. It is usually considered to include the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, Israel, and in some definitions, some parts of western Jordan. The name was used by ancient Greek writers, and it was later used for the Roman province Syria Palaestina, the Byzantine Palaestina Prima, and the Islamic provincial district of Jund Filastin. The region comprises most of the territory claimed for the biblical regions known as the Land of Israel, the Holy Land or Promised Land. Historically, it has been known as the southern portion of wider regional designations such as Canaan, Syria, ash-Sham, and the Levant. Situated at a strategic location between Egypt, Syria and Arabia, and the birthplace of Judaism and Christianity, the region has a long and tumultuous history as a crossroads for religion, culture, commerce, and politics.

Children generally have fewer rights and responsibilities than adults.

Video Description (from Youtube)

In the last two years, thousands of Palestinian bloodlines have been wiped from the civil registry.
Some families though have managed to leave behind a trace of their existence - an orphaned child.
After two years of Israeli attacks, more than 39,000 children in Gaza have lost at least one parent and further 17,000 kids have lost both parents.
Nearly 2,600 of those children have been registered as what is known as WCNSF - wounded child, no surviving family.

Al Jazeera's Moath al-Khalout went to meet one baby, born in the most tragic of circumstances, and has this report from Gaza City, Palestine.
