    I don’t “agree” with it (I am just not making a judgment), but terrorism is frequently useful.

    Terrorism is a tool used by any revolutionary group to force change to be enacted. It really just depends on if the revolutionary group is successful whether they’re called terrorists after the fact.

    It’s also utilized by every nation to enforce order, but they just don’t call it that and they control the media. Terrorism is only called that when it’s the tools of the oppressor are used by the oppressed. Israel had killed 22.4x more Palestinians than Israelis had been killed by 2020. I think it only got worse since then, but this is the data I saw first. It’s definitely way worse now.

      Terrorism is literally the tool Israel used to force their state to exist. They used to bomb Arab homes and target British colonialists in the 40’s.
