Hamas uses civilians & the world falls for it every time. Not to mention ANY excuse for the Anti Semites the world over.
I've LONG tired of the self imposed victim hood of the palestinians; who have had a myriad of chances at peace and refused them all. The civilized Arab world has left them behind & are now making treaties with Israel. Israel controls less than 1% of the ME. Everyone else needs to get used to that tiny piece of land being Israel because they're not going anywhere
