    If a nation states justification for violating such laws is that a terrorist organization is doing too, then they fucked up completely.

    This terrorist organization, Hamas, runs the government in Gaza. They were elected in democratic elections in 2006 and no elections have been held since. This is an attack from a terrorist state, not an example of clandestine civilians acting on their own.

      The Hamas is called a terrorist organization by Israel, most NATO countries and many others. It is the official language of the Western nations and neither Gaza nor Palestine ist recognized as a “state” by Israel or again most of NATO.

      Adding more hypocricsy to the hypocricsy doesn’t make it better as a justification.

        Although that is true, the state of Palestine has significant international recognition.

        Terrorism is most obviously defined by attacks on civilians for political ends. Hamas, who is in charge of Gaza, just orchestrated the murder of 1000+ civilians. I’m at a loss as to how one can try to portray this as not a terrorist state. An EDM concert full of civilian youths is not a valid military target, this wasn’t collateral damage, it was an intentional attack on civilians.

        Is it any wonder NATO and Israel doesn’t want to normalize relations with them?
