Let me quote from the article I linked previously.

Israel has yet to prove that Hamas has used civilian infrastructure to store military weapons. The two cases where Hamas indeed stored weapons in UNRWA schools, the schools were empty. UNRWA discovered the rockets and publicly condemned the violation of its sanctity.

Besides, again, even if Hamas did hide rockets in schools in Gaza, that does not mean it's okay for IDF to bomb them. Israel can't put a part of it's population under military rule and then claim that it's fighting a war against them as if they were an outside force.
Let's make one thing clear:
Gaza is Israel, by every definition of international law. If Hamas is hiding weapons in schools in Gaza, they are hiding them in schools in Israel. IDF is bombing the schools of it's own population. But of course, only a specific part of it's population.
Let's say for example that Al-Qaida was found out to be hiding weapons in schools in Edmonton. Following your logic, it would be perfectly cool for the RCAF to bomb which ever schools it thought might have weapons in them. We all hate Edmontonians here anyway, right?
