Just about every Israeli citizen has been given military training and has been in the IDF at some point. With this knowledge, how in the world should Hamas and the Palestinian people view the Israeli citizenry. They have all directly participated in the apartheid state or are prepared to.

This is not me making a moral judgement. But any rational person that attempts for one second to see this conflict from the point of view of Palestine should come to the same conclusion? How are Palestinians who have been caged for almost two decades and driven to the point of war via desperation supposed to make the distinction between pacifists and dormant soldiers?
