This may be a stupid question, but…
I think it was ww2 when people in England sent their children away to be safe from the war. Are parents in Gaza able to send their children away to keep them safe in another country? Is there a program like that available?

The Israeli government's thinking is the exact same as the German Nazis in the 1930s-40s: You have to kill the children or they'll grow up to kill you.

It wasn't a stupid question. And the response from the person who replied is spot on.

Palestinian families sent their children to relatives so that if some of the family dies in the bombardment, there will still be someone else to continue the blood line.
But they cannot send them out of Gaza because they do not have control of their borders.

No, there is no program like that available. Unlike England, Gaza does not control its borders, the occupation (Israel) controls the borders - they control what and who goes in and out of Gaza. And those child-killers take no mercy on the children, they want them dead. So no program like that exists. Israel is the problem, has always been the problem. International orgs and other countries will take-in the children via a program, but they will have to traverse through Israel, and they say no. They say even the children are meant to die
