Because 1917 Balfour Declaration was a shitty set of lines drawn by the British during WW1. The Ottomans were a great power back then, and one of the only world powers that was predominantly Muslim.
The Jews didn’t really migrate to the area until 1947, where after the horrors of the Holocaust were made evident, the British gave the land to Israel formally (some migration occurred during the post WW1 period but the bulk was post-WW2.) EDIT: I recognize that historically, some Hebrews have always lived there as it is also their ancestral homes… but the “bulk” came from Europe and other countries.
Naturally, the historic Muslim communities were pissed at this development and there was a period of minor war until 1967, wherein the current borders have basically settled.
The violence never stopped. The most recent developments was the rise of Hamas, whose goals are to genocide Israel and wipe them from ‘The River to the Sea’. Bibi and the far-right Israelis took advantage of this politically as a scapegoat, but Hamas took Bibi and the Israeli far right as a scapegoat as well.
Hamas wins the last Gaza election, taking power in the early 00s. Israeli offers aid (water, food, fuel, electricity) but it turns out that Hamas has been taking the pipes for water and turning them into weapons. Hamas has also been stealing food and fuel to feed their war machine.
Ultimately, this population crisis is largely homegrown. The bulk of Gaza citizens are under 18, proof that it was the pro-birth policies under the Hamas regime that has made the bulk of this population issue.
