Israeli Terrorist

Israel expropriates Palestinian land and then cries ‘terrorism’ when Hamas retorts in reaction. How else should they (Hamas) respond? International powers back Israel in every right and wrong. They are not entitled to self-government. Neither are they given the status of equal citizenship in the state of Israel. Isn’t terrorism the only option left to them? Sartre once pointed out that 'terrorism is a terrible weapon but the oppressed poor have none other.' 


A lasting peace and a long-term solution won’t be reached until a just settlement is afforded to Palestinians; either it be a two-state solution or a single-state solution. Leave behind even a hint of injustice, you give militants an excuse for violence. This latest expansionist episode by Israel is a big blow to the ideal of a peaceful world.
