Hamas is also a “state” in that they are a democratically elected political organization that has a monopoly on violence in Gaza. That’s the definition of a “state.”
However they also engage in terrorism. Kind of a two-fer.
Israel, otoh does not technically engage in terrorism. Instead, their violence against civilians only acts to further the goals and status quo of Hamas. Terrorism by definition is a political act of violence to effect change.

I fail to see how Hamas is a terrorist organization, and the Israeli government isn’t. The difference to me seems purely down to PR.
Did you hear the part where he said Hamas has a monopoly on violence in Gaza lmfao
Jesus Christ I actually glossed over that part somehow.
