    I think most of the world sees a third-world nation being constantly bullied by their neighbor, honestly. Encroaching on borders, constantly expanding into their borders (Russia just called it “annexing”), and just being really unapologetic about it.

    When they (Palestine) fight back, this is how, and probably the only way they can. Is it brutal? Sure.

    The defending will always be called “terrorists” by the opposing side. Same thing happened when the US invaded Iraq for no good reason, also Vietnam, Grenada…the list just goes on.

    If a foreign entity decides they are going to start building houses on my property and it’s CLEARLY defined it is my property, I’m going to fight back as well. I will be called a terrorist by those people. I’m just confounded that people are acting so surprised about this.
