      It seems to fit to you because your initial operating assumption is that you should support the terrorists here and everything else you believe is distorted to meet those expectations.

      For instance, Israel told the civilians to move to the city of 120k people that is called a refugee camp, but is in fact a full on 80 year old city, and fourteen people died in an airstrike on a Hamas position.

      But you didn’t Google the city “camp” or look past the claims at all, because your initial assumption is “Israel bad, Hamas good.”

      You are indeed defending terrorists who kill families of civilians with no overarching military goal in mind at all.

        You know nothing about me, and fuck you for making an accusation like that. Shameful.

          I know what you state, and that’s what you stated.

          If that offends you, take a long look in the mirror and sort your life out

          Terrorism is indeed when you kill civilians with no military aim in mind. Invading a country specifically to murder their families in their homes is absolutely terrorism.

            why should the military aim matter? THAT’S PURELY POLITICAL. terrorism just means you don’t LIKE the politics of the person doing the killing.

              Terrorism is explicitly killing done without military targets in mind. It’s explicitly political, and targeted at civilians, to instill terror.

              I’m sorry you don’t like the definition of the word, but it is the definition of the word.

                  No that’s just good old fashioned racism combined with stupidly poor recruiting and training practices.

                it’s loaded language. i know what the definition is, but using it only means you don’t like the politics of the killers.

                  No it means they’re doing things that fit the definition.
