Could you please explain and qualify your usage of the term terrorism at the end of your post? I would hate to think that you are contributing to the myth which portrays terrorism as predominantly being an anti State activity. As Dr Sluka argues in
Death Squad: The Anthropology of State Terror a vast majority of terrorist acts are performed by States, either directly or indirectly. Even when we look at the specific example which this thread is about we find that Israel and the U.S.A are guilty of terrorism. So it is unjust to slant it as being the terrorists against Israel.
