the hamas leadership are a bunch of gutless rats hiding in exile while forcing hard working folk to die for their pathetic ideas.
well a lot of people are volunteering to fight with Hamas because they represent the only visible pole of militant opposition in a pretty hopeless situation and make appeals to very strong religious/cultural beliefs among the Islamic population in Gaza.
Not to say that they're correct, goodguys, or should be supported at all, but i just don't think it's accurate to characterize them as some all group drafting unwilling civilians as cannon fodder.
