They need a new PR manager. They also need to drop the line that Israel shouldn't exist. They can't win against Israel and the supporters of Israel, so they should soften their approach and go down the humanitarian route of highlighting the plight of those they represent.

They have conscription in Israel so it's never difficult to find an active or former member of the military.
