I don't want to open this can of worms. It's wrong to blame any particular civilian for anything.

However, I'm going to be a little cold here. Who voted Hamas into power with a majority? Who put them in a position to turn against Fatah? Who put these thugs in a position where they can antagonize Israel over and over and over as representatives of the Palestinian people?

While it's unfair to say any particular civilian is asking for anything, it's hard to believe the majority of the Palestinian people voted Hamas into power without at least considering the possible repercussions. Hamas didn't seize power. The people of Palestine elected them.
