@srinivas4153 There is no good understanding of terrrorism. The definition is: “Terrorism (from the Latin word terror, panic) is the commission of serious violence, or serious threat thereof, WITHOUT LAWFUL GROUNDS, for a political or religious purpose. In most understandings of what terrorism is, it must involve illegal violence, usually linked to civilians and victims. This means that Hamas is not a terrorist organization but a resistance movement that even has the right to use violence. Israël, together with the US are the terrorists because the occupation is not a legal ground.

@oyster4545 The Palestinian people are the descendants of the inhabitants of the area known as 'Historic Palestine'. The Palestinians have a fascinating Arab culture.

Israel has no right to exist on other people's land. This follows from the November 2nd 1917 Balfour Declartation. When you read the one page carefully. It states the conditions by the British Crown under which the refugee jews were allowed to live in Palestine. One of the conditions is “‘that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-jewish communities in Palestine”. Consistently violated.

All this will backfire to the Israelis.

@oyster4545 Are you a zionist? Israel has no right to exist on other people's land. This follows from the November 2nd 1917 Balfour Declartation. When you read the one page carefully.

@oyster4545 This jewish illusion is nothing more than a religious obsession, imagination and a fantasy. The entire Middle East is Arab territory, so what can the jews expect?
