    I mean, are Hamas Palestinian? Yes. Are they terrorists? Yes. What is the problem here?

      Calling non-terrorists, terrorists is the problem.

      Just a small percentage of Palestinians are affiliated with Hamas and especially their attacks.

        OK, let’s deconstruct the sentence in the post further. Who are fighting right now? Hamas or civilians? Freedom from what? Israel doesn’t rule in Gaza.

          I am not discussing the article. I’m just not agreeing with your take that all Palestinians are terrorists.

            It wasn’t even doing that. The translation was happening any time someone put the word/flag “Palestine” in their profile with the phrase “praise be to God”. There didn’t even any protest or any mention of the war.

      Can i call all north americans terrorists, since the KKK is a terrorist organization with several local supporters ? Are the KKK north americans ? Yes (dunno if they accept canadians or other whites though, but probably almost all are USA, hamas probably has non palestinians too). Are they terrorists ? Yes.
