    why do you guys wear uniforms and operate openly and build military bases away from schools and hospitals

    Two reasons: First, they actually have a military, generously funded by the US taxpayer. (And Palestine does not.) Second, you’re right, it’s so rude for Palestine to directly place their schools and hospitals in the path of American Israeli bombs.

      Violence is definitely also my first choice when people disagree with me, I’m glad we’re in agreement that this is a legitimate method for resolving differences that is followed by civilized people.

      Hamas is the elected and widely recognized government of Gaza, their armed forces are the military of that country and they deserve to be criticized for not adhering to established standards of behavior for military forces, just like the IDF is.
