Israel apparently has problems with its military obeying the Geneva convention

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it the Geneva Conventions that says lawful combatants must a) wear a uniform, b) not target non-combatants, c) not use non-combatants as human shields? And that combatants violating rules a), b), and c) are unlawful combatants? What does the Geneva Convention say about fighting unlawful combatants?

Yes, there have been a small number of killings by Israeli extremists. Considering the proportion of casualties they have suffered, aren't you suprised to have seen only a handful of incidents?
