And an estimated 57,300 lived so far in 2010. You've really need to stop using skewed information. They have hospitals in their areas (24). Why would they want a "Zionist Jew" to deliver their babies??
Is there another reason they want their child to have its birth city in ISRAEL??
And this compares how to the nearly 20,000 neonatal deaths in the US?
And why do they stand in line?
On June 20, 2005 a 21 year old Palestinian woman, Wafa Samir Ibrahim al-Biss, from Gaza attempted a suicide bomb attack on Israel’s Soroka hospital, where she was a patient. This episode was ignored by virtually all international media.
Maybe because their hospitals have been destroyed by Israel. There are not many resources left in Gaza due to Israel not allowing supplies in.

I do agree with your concern about a "Zionist Jew" delivering Palestinian babies though. I understand there is a lot of prejudice from Israeli doctors. This is too bad.
After looking through it, I now realize living conditions in Gaza are much worse than I thought! For example:
Couldn't find any hospital counts though.
Gazans are responsible for their own misery. They elected a terrible government in Hamas and now they are paying the price. I feel sorry for them, really. Look at the relative prosperity of the West Bank Palestinians, sans Hamas. Difference is black and white. Even moreso, the even higher prosperity of Arabs living in Israel proper. You claim Israel is causing all this misery when in reality Arabs that choose peace over terror have benefited.
None of this makes sense. You are claiming that Israel could treat the Palestinians even worse than they do now, therefore, the Palestinians should be grateful they have no rights, have their homes bulldozed, have resources boycotted, and have to go through multiple humiliating checkpoints just to get to a hospital.
I never claimed that Israel should treat the Palestinians worse. The Palestinians are not Israeli citizens. People that are not citizens of a country do not have the same rights as citizens. (Even in the USA, non-citizens don't have the same rights as American citizens.)
Besides that fact, the Palestinians in Gaza elected Hamas (which is a terrorist organization) to lead their local government and now they are paying the price.
I am stating facts which make perfect sense to any logical person.
Here is an article from the link you supplied. I find it particularly evil to cause harm to a child!

Court: Soldiers endangered Palestinian boy
Two Givati soldiers convicted of ordering 9-year old Palestinian boy to open bags suspected of containing explosives during Operation Cast Lead in Gaza. Parents, friends show up in shirts that say: We are all Goldstone's victims, call verdict 'betrayal'
No more okay than it was for Israel to shoot missiles laced with phosphorus into civilian neighborhoods of Gaza!
Israel in far from an example of peace!
