The people we call terrorist movements are the people who choose to target civilians for their aims. The people we call freedom fighters are people who fight military targets.
Israel at war

Yet surprise, in all your posts, you haven't even hinted at criticism for Hamas for launching this attack which mainly targeted Israeli civilians.
p.s. Democratically elected Hamas? Maybe you could say that 20 years ago before their coup and their electoral mandate being long, long, expired.
Well free speech and all.....I'm sure the RCMP is out filming these guys to keep track of who they are. So that's a good thing.
Reminder, Gaza is ruled by Hamas who are a massively corrupt group of religious extremists who spend money meant to help their people on weapons to perpetuate the conflict.
Depends on who is running the Palestinians. Hamas, PIJ, and PFLP are pretty clear what their goal is. Factions of Fatah also share that goal but the PA is not as open.
Just a reminder, Hamas' attackers chose butchered and kidnapped civilians.
And you want it replaced by One State of Palestine even though the more moderate PA has laws on the books denying Jews even the chance of owning land.
I'm sure they already are. The last major war they were holding press conferences in Gaza's largest hospital while launching rockets from it's parking lot.
I have a feeling that Hamas' border protests/riots over the past week were intentionally planned to distract and mislead Israeli border observations.
And it's a lengthy border. No way could Israel afford to keep heavy forces on deployment all along it.
And how does that justify Hamas' choice to butcher and kidnap hundreds of civilians?
Nice of you to bring your hatred of Sikhs who want independence into a concertation about Hamas trying to get a state by killing Jewish civilians.
Two problems with that. Israeli intelligence being touted as the best in the world, shouldn't be distracted or foiled by protests and riots after all these years.
And they have one of these....
"Yasser Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Foreign Minister Shimon Peres were jointly awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1994.
The return of Arafat was the beginning of the enactment of the Declaration of Principles agreed at the Oslo Peace Accords signed in Washington in 1993.
Under the agreement, the Palestinian National Authority took control of the newly autonomous areas - Gaza and Jericho - and in 1996 Arafat became its elected president."
Israel has chosen to occupy Palestine for 75 years and rule Palestinians through apartheid.
That is why there is violence.
In 2021 thousands of settlers stormed the Al Aqsa and Hamas responded.
On Oct 4 the same thing happened.
You chose to stand with an apartheid occupation.
Its time to deescalate through sanctions to end apartheid.
That is the only way to stop the violence.
Not through killing more of the 2 million people living in the world's largest prison in Gaza.
In 2014 Israel bombed civilians and killed 2000.
I'm sure you'll cheer when they kill more this time.
And there will still not be peace.

I didn't notice that the CBC radio news listed the deaths on isreal side With no mention of the retaliation. It makes the it's really sound like angels.
