They want to go out in "a blaze of glory" rather than fade away. Israel has been clearing them out slowly and nobody is stopping it, but if Hamas provokes Israel into doing it quickly maybe that will generate enough outrage that the world will try to stop it.
While Israel has been chipping away at Palestinian land in the West Bank, Palestinian population continues to rise, and rise faster than Israeli population at that. And we don't see the West Bank doing these kind of attacks, only Gaza.

They ain't fading away, regardless of Israel's attacks and oppression. The "blaze of glory" is just terrorism.
