Why do so many people criticize Israel, when they don't know the facts?

My husband and I have been saying the same thing from the beginning of all this. People don't understand how cowardly they are for hiding in civilian homes. Hell, they are civilians themselves. They are not a military belonging to a nation. They are a civilian militant terrorist group, dressed as civilians, living in civilians homes, and getting civilians killed. It is nice to see an educated individual on here. Thank you.
