Aren"t People who hide their faces cowards? Does a religion that requires you to hide your face use this rule to control your mind and fill you with fear? How can this practice of shame and secrecy make your life better?

That is your typical Islam. They sneak. they prowl, they strike run and hide.
It is a way of life.

They may or may not be cowards, but I don't believe the situation warrants declaring them as such.
Israel stands as the premiere military power in the Middle East primarily due to the support of the U.S. ... we effectively paid for Israel's military and ensured they would have much more capable technology than the other countries and groups in the region.
In addition, France likely sold Israel nuclear weaponry ... though Israel has yet to officially declare itself to be a nuclear power.
So when you compare the men of Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, and other nations to the technological might of Israel ... of course they won't stand and fight openly ... to do so would be suicide without any noticeable impact to their foe.
Our nation took up these guerilla tactics during it's own Revolutionary War ... or have we forgotten?
I am a U.S. Army veteran ... an M1A1 Abrahms tank gunner.
I am certain that those who call these men cowards for fighting from the darkness would do the same if they faced down a tank with a meager automatic rifle to use in defense ... and if they wouldn't, they'd be dead and forgotten in an instant.
As for their manner of dressing ... the style is one that goes back many hundreds of years and has nothing to do with the current conflict or situation ... it is simply tradition. Using this difference as a means of judging the people seems very ... ignorant ...

How do you call people with limited power like Hamas and Hizbullah cowards and they hijacked more than 10 soldiers till now from the most powerfull army in the whole world? Only brave people who do something like that. The coward are people who destroy houses and buildings while they are 100% sure that there are civilians inside. Cowards are people who are afraid to go to ground war and keep using their airforce and tanks to bumb cities. Israel are the cowards not Hamas and Hizbullah. Right?

There is no comparison between Israel and both of Hamas and Hizbollah.
Hamas and Hizbollah do not own a country and a military power like Israel. It is a shame for Israel that being a super military power in the region, two small groups made Israel rub its nose on the floor. God does the same to those who show arrogance!
Now Israel is killing innocent people in Lebonan and Gaza and being comparitively so much strong, it has failed to recover 3 soldiers from a handful of so called enemies who have no fighter jets, no navy.

they are not cowards coz they tend to hide their faces, they're hiding their faces to stay alive as much as they can, coz their enemies out power them with resources,they have to find a way to protect themselves from being killed so they can fight as long as they can
do u call calling a war with one of the biggest nations and Israel cowards?? they would be shameful and cowards if they sat and watched their women and children die before their own eyes without protecting them,
i dont know but why dont u call Israelis cowards when all they go killing are harmless women and children??????

Yes, they are cowards for doing this but, what is 10 times more cowardly is shooting WW2 era rocets into inncoent neighborhoods with no strategic goal and killing innocent people. What is even more cowardly is all of this is in the so-called "name of Islam" when the religion is just as loving and peaceful as Christanity.

Two things to say here...
1. Yes, they are desperate cowards ashamed of themselves so they feel they have to hide their faces.
2. There is no love in fear. (~That quote belongs to Maynard)

No, it just shows how smart they are, because they're not foolish enough to come out, to face a superior military, in open ground, where they can be completely destroyed.
You don't have to agree with their outlook on world affairs to see the rationale, of your statement

They prove what cowards they are also by starting a fight and then calling for someone else to stop it.

Amen to that. if they're so proud - show yourself.
but then again, this same society makes ordinary women hide themselves from head to toe in a burka except their eyes - so maybe it's a new male fashion statement.

They are cowards because they bomb their enemies and then run and hide behind the skirts of their women and behind their children.
