Reply to comment by zxcvb94105 in At least three Palestinians killed in Israeli raids on Nablus by DavidMalony

Is attacking military targets really terrorism? We're always condemning them for attacking civilian targets, are there no valid targets for armed resistance?

One example. 4,600+ Hamas rockets targeting Israeli civilians in the dead of night for a week. Without a strong defense, and interest in defending versus offensive obliteration, tens-of-thousands of Israel’s Jews and Arabs would have been killed.

Enough said.

I would say it isn't. But a terrorist organization can attack military targets and still be a terrorist organization for their terrorist attacks.

This organization is only a couple months old but has carried out attacks targeting civilians. So they're terrorists.
