    When you don't have a conventional military, this is how warfare is done.

    Israel isn’t exactly a beacon of peace and stability in the region. Bibi is a real POS in the same vein of Trump, Putin, and Xi.

    I want people to do a simple thought experiment.

    Recall one time where a conventional military fighting a non conventional force didn't label the opposition as terrorists or savages?

    Hamas is a symptom of people with less options trying to find a way out of their situation.

    There never is a "both sides" when it's conventual warfare vs people who have significantly less where they don't have a conventional military. Never had there been a "both sides" there. It's always one side wanting to maintain the status quo power dynamic. That all.

    That has nothing to do with HAMAS. Hamas has no interest in solving any problems for the Palestinians. They just care for power

    Show me the right way a non conventional entity fights a conventional military. The Kurds? Doesn't the Turkish government label their fighting forces terrorists also?

    Russia gets its weapons from Iran and North Korea. Hamas probably too.

    Hey man....

    Stop @ING me about how much I hate Biden and love Bernie. Like seriously stop it. I don't care about Bernie Sanders or Biden. You just randomly @ME. That's far more unhinged than thinking that a conventional force labeling the non conventional force as "terrorists" is a tale as old as modern formation nation-states.

    I don’t disagree with the premise of guerilla warfare , but firing on civilians?

    hammas is stupid, this is going to make life for the Palestinians harder in the end. There is absolutely nothing this will accomplish

    It is very grim. The last thing they Israel would is have more Arabs ie. Palestinians within what they consider the Jewish privileged state of Israel.

    Terrorism is unrestricted warfare. War is violence for political means. And terrorism means you’ll kill anyone to achieve those means.
    Russia bombs Ukrainian hospitals, schools, and children on the daily but somehow that doesn’t bother you.
