So certainly an attack similar to the video in the fruit store I would have a hard time calling that terrorism if it was a country we were at war with.


There is a line somewhere in this of the acceptable amount of civilian deaths to kill an enemy. It’s not the number in Gaza. It’s not the fake save zones in gaza.

To me with currently available information and my stated assumptions this is in the range of acceptable.

I note you didn’t answer my questions of you in my post. I’m interested in your take on were the targets legitimate and is there a size of explosion that wouldn’t have you calling this terrorism. Essentially what makes it terrorism to you.
The target is valid, the method is most definitely not. It's terrorism because as I said there's no way of knowing where the target is or who is around them. I don't think it's ok to just hide behind well the target is a member but it doesn't matter where they are they are fair game. With this logic you can say well even if a member goes to pick up their kid from school it's fine to blow them up in front of kids and yeah maybe a few kids would get affected too. Again, at least 5000 people are injured. And it just opens up a Pandora's box, I believe in Israel military service is mandatory, now does this mean any civilian place in Israel is a valid target because there's a good chance there are soldiers or potential soldiers there? I would hope not
