Palestinian protesters - cowards?

Saw the film on the news where these guys were throwing things while protesting after the murders of those young men visiting Israel. I find them cowards in that they had their heads covered. If you are proud of what you are doing and you believe in something strong enough why hide your faces. Ashamed of what you are doing? Just like here when you see the criminals being led out with their heads covered or they keep their heads down. Cowards.

    The Palestinians kidnapped and then murdered 3 innocent Jewish teenage boys (one an American) who were rabbi students. The Palestinians started it and now all Palestinians are going to get it with full Israeli military response.

    As far as being cowards I agree and it has been true since 1948 and the 1st Palestinian massacres against Jews.

    They are fighting using rocks against an army with guns. They keep their faces covered because the army will come after them, arrest and torture them and their families and destroy their homes. To continue to protest by throwing rocks under these circumstances is an act of bravery against overwhelming odds.

    They don't seem ashamed to me. Neither to they seem like cowards.

    If they are cowards as you say then the Israeli military are the biggest punks on the planet. Killing and torturing CHILDREN who are armed with rocks. No justification whatsoever. They are supposed to be the good guys and professional, NOT!!!!

    and if something happens to the kids they beach and

    complain.
