  What’s wrong with calling Hamas terrorists? They have randomly but deliberately killed innocent people. How else would you describe that?

    So have the Ukrainian army. Will you condemn the Ukrainian army as terrorists, or is it different because they’re white?

      TBF most Israelis are no less “white” than Italians, because that’s what Ashkenazi Jews largely are genetically.

    See? This is why they defed you. You’re carrying water for Zionists by saying that legitimate defense against an occupying nation is terrorism.

      Killing innocent people is never a legitimate defense. Actually, it is no defense at all, because these innocent people did nothing to Gaza or Hamas.

      An anarchist authority that chooses an authoritarian, Islamist, and reactionary organization as the hill on which it wants to die. It makes you want to bang your head against the table. What I see this much more as is a case of double standards. Because the IDF, which also kills innocent people, makes the same argument. “Oh, it’s just defense.”

      You still haven’t explained what is Zionist about calling Hamas Terrorist. You simply don’t like my opinion about it, so you stick that label on it. It’s intellectually lazy because it saves you from having to argue and allows you to rely solely on virtue signaling.
