Orthodox Jewish folks don't need to serve in IDF, and yet they produce more kids. So, more votes and better poll participation from the Orthodox side skew these problems. That's what I heard on some show.
I am not justifying Hamas' attack on Israeli people. What does a justification do, anyway? It transforms unjust acts into just acts using some or another theory, ideology, etc. With this side comment out of the way, how do you explain Hamas' attacks, major support for Hamas from Gaza, West Bank, East Jerusalem? One explanation most people seem to accept is that folks in Gaza are bottled up, such a pressure cooker just blew up. Another related explanation: Israel has subverted two-state solution, leading to pressure cooker situation.
I have no problems in accepting the claim that they are anti-Jewish and that they don't want a Jewish state in the Middle East. That's what many a muslim would say in private conversations. This discussion can't be had in the West today, due to political correctness: when Islam is power or when Islam dominates a society, they have problems with non-Islamic people (history of Islam shows that). When Islam is in minority or lacks the power, different tunes are sung.
