I agree with a lot of what you say, but it makes sense that people do not condemn (as loudly) what Hamas and some other palestinians do, as this cannot be separated from their desparate position. There have been and still are more legitimate attacks on military israeli targets by palestinians. However, these are extremely ineffective because the palestinians have very simple weapons, whereas the israeli military is one of the most well armed in the world. So it is not surprising that in their desperation they go for more "soft" (civilian) targets, especially because civilians are targeted by israel as well (and many more palestinian civilians die than israeli).
This is not to say we should not condemn attacks on civilians. However, the fact that we are alot more busy condemning israeli oppression and aggression than desparate resistance, does not indicate anti-semitism.
Even here, in WW2, dutch resistance killed german civilians, eg blowing up an SS officer and his whole family. Is this ok? No. But like the palestinian resistance, it still deserve(d) our (sometimes very) critical solidarity.
