Why do we think people outraged by Hamas terrorism were not similarly outraged by likely war crimes perpetrated by the Israel military against peaceful protests by Palestinians? At least, not outraged sufficiently to post about it multiple times of Calgarypuck?

Do you remember how those 'peaceful' protests went? I do!
They involved going towards the border fence. Lighting tires to mask the approach, cutting the fence, and attempting to either infiltrate Israel leave explosive on the fence, or later to shoot at soldiers when the fence was being repaired.
There were orders to shoot anyone that was approaching the fence as a response. Also a lot of those children you mention were youths around 16-17 years old that actively work for the Hamas. A sniper can't always tell if a masked individual rioting and damaging the fence was of age. Moreover, some of the shootings could've been self inflicted in order to fire up the mobs.
Ask yourself what were 'children' doing there in the first place?
