I just want to take a stab at these.

3 I think they are trying to get Israel to make a big mistake, which would make it easy for media to demonize the nation even more. Like, if you look at a publication like "the gaurdian", titles read something along the lines of "Israel continues to bombard Gaza". In my opinion, that's already a ridiculous title, but if Israel made a huge mistake somehow, (which wouldnt be that hard given the close proximity of Hamas militants and Palestinian civilians) the articles on news outlets would be even more exaggerated.

4 Alright, when we got attacked on 9/11, a small group of terrorists hijacked a few planes and crashed them into buildings. How did the US react? Now, let me give you a more personal example. Let's say your mom and dad are being held hostage in their homes by 2 armed gunmen. Would you want the local police to show up with 2 officers or with 2 dozen to help diffuse the situation? War isn't about reacting to an aggressor with the same level of intensity. Lives are at risk. Lives of women and children and soldiers (many of which are just 18-21yr old kids in Israel). This isn't some game.
