Between 1945 and 2006, worldwide Jewish population grew by 32%. Worldwide non-Jewish Palestinian population multiplied more than 7 times (growth by 676%). Detailed figures appear in the table below.
In view of those figures, it should be asked why were the Palestinians favored by having a nakba.

I am deaf since birth. I played with big computers which eat punched cards and spew out printouts since age 12. Ever since they became available, I work and play with desktop size computers which eat keyboard keypresses and spew out display pixels.
Among other things, I developed software which helped the deaf in Israel use the telephone network, by means of home computers equipped with modems. Several years later, I developed Hebrew localizations for some cellular phones, which helped the deaf in Israel utilize the cellular phone networks.
I am interested in entrepreneurship, Science Fiction and making the world more accessible to people with disabilities.
