The map (see link below) shows a country called Palestine. Some Jews invaded in 1948 and changed the name to Israel. They took more and more land until there was just a small area called Gaza for the surviving Palestinians to live in. Israel didn't have Gaza first, Palestine had Palestine first.

Egypt owned Gaza at the time. However Israel owned the area where Palestine was 100's of years before the Palestinians even moved there.
