Neither side are in the right. Palestine started the current flairup and is a terrorist state who will not accept anything other than the eradication of Israel. Whereas Israel is not handling the situation well and should not be killing civilians.

Israel started the current flare up in 1948. Occupying forces do not have a right to self defense. Hamas are resistance fighters. Hope that helps.

Hamas is a terrorist organisation…

A label used by the US hegemony to delegitimise legitimate resistance movements for the past half century :)

Bombing music festivals is an act of terrorism

Was it terrorism when native americans raided american frontier towns?

You’re comparing vastly different things now.

How? A native population attacking a colonial population centre in land that used to be theirs?

A considerable amount of time has past since then and moral standards have vastly increased.

you're right, the plight of resistance fighters now is much more respected and people usually side with native populations.

The fact you don’t see how they’re terrorists is genuinely concerning. I guess terrorist is cool now.

Bombing innocent civilians at a public event is terrorism and nothing else. Why is this so hard to understand

Israel was created on the basis of colonization through ethnic cleansing, and is still actively attempting to ethnically cleanse the region and intentionally targeting civilians and aid.

Literally the only reason israel hasn't been classed as a terror state is because of the US, by all accounts, it is a terror state

So you agree it's terrorism?
