I swapped the original article at the request of a mod to from a source deemed more reliable, but to avoid confusion when reading the comment section prior to this edit, here is the link to the original article. I chose the Relief Web source listed by some who commented. Cheers!
Did you not notice the events that started this recent shit? Hamas certainly engages in terrorism, as does the IDF.
There’s an old adage that one man’s freedom fighter is another man’s terrorist.
Allowing a label to dictate your view of the events is naive at best.
I always say “if you look at it from the current government point of view, Luke Skywalker was just a terrorist.”
Darth Vader blowing up Alderaan with the Death Star was justified self defense.
Uh, it’s a nice saying, but it’s not really that true. There are some defining differences in terrorists and fighting a war
Anyone or government can call an individual or group “terrorists.” To the British, American revolutionaries were terrorists. Every movie you’ve seen where the hero fights back against an evil government is a terrorist. Jason Bourne is a terrorist.
History didn’t start on October 7th.
Did you not notice the giant wall around Gaza and the starvation and israeli bombing of their infrastructure before October the 7th?
Are you gonna call the Ukrainians terrorists too for blowing up the train track that connects Russia to China?
Good analogy.
