Haniyeh was a noncombatant and a political leader, living in a US-allied country with the blessing of the USA (and now the other political leaders have just moved to Turkey, a NATO member to boot). Being a noncombatant affiliated with a group that your country has deemed a terror organization does not, under international law, give you carte Blanche to assassinate them. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Israel has been oppressing Palestinians for decades so it’s not really surprising that some portions of the Palestinian population is going to be ‘belligerent’ and commit horrific atrocities Of course when we talk about Hamas we also have to talk about how Israel encourage and supported it’s creation so that it would undermine Fatah There are people committing crimes against humanity on both sides, unfortunately it’s the innocents of the Palestinian population who bear most of the price (and of course those Israeli’s who were victims of Hamas on Oct 7th) | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Terrorism is defined as the use of violence in the pursuit of political aims. By that definition, the American founding fathers were terrorists. Hell, Jewish military & paramilitary groups like Irgun, Tzahal, Stern gang and Palmach were all terrorist gangs using force to establish the Jewish State and expel Palestinians from their homes. By that logic, America's drone strikes that killed hundreds of innocent bystanders in the Middle East were acts of terror. Do you want us to take your logic a bit further? | |||||||||||||||||||||||
