When they're rolling tanks over people in the Gaza Strip, yes.

Forced to blow people up as suicide bombers and delivering truck bombs -> terrorism.
Forced to blow people up and roll over civilians with tanks in search of 1 or 2 "terrorists" -> terrorism.

The terrorists didn't do this to the Gaza Strip, the Israelis did, in search of terrorists:

Even if those 1or 2 Terrorists may be responsible for the deaths of hundreds maybe thousands of your people and will continue to do so if not killed, and, then choose to hide behind innocent civilians for protection from those who they attack and kill at will?

Personally I would be more prepared to see the one's who choose to hide behind civilians as terrorists and the ones pursuing them acting in self defense.

I really like your cute use of "quotation" marks when using the word Terrorist. Kind of gives me the feeling you don't really beleive in the use of the word.

Want to see pictures of the aftermath of a Bus Bombing in Tel Aviv? Israeli's didn't do it, Terrorists did in search of killing civilians.

I don't think a majority of the Palestinians care what you think Fox News told you.

I'm sure the majority would be more than happy with their farm land back.

But its all condos and home complexes that look like mid Michigan so... bleh.

CNN, whatever you wanna watch.
The reality of it is they're en mass shelling people to hunt down what? a few thousand out of what? 500,000?

Its like blowing up your house to kill a mouse.

I think very little terrorisim in Palestine is motivated by the Koran.

The notion of what constitutes terrorisim is very relative to your frame of reference, but from our perspective it generally indicates the intentional and random targeting of civilians in an attempt to propagate fear.

I wouldn't consider the consisant over application of force by the IDF, or actions like the razing of homes to be terrorisim per say....oppression perhaps in some instances, but not terrorisim.

Given that some of the Israeli violence is certainly justified, yet some appears to be way over the top just adds to a rather unique and dysfunctional situation.

Neither. Of. Them. Are. Right.

Children writing on bombs is not right.
Children being forced to blow people up is not right.
People blowing up buses is not right.
People rolling over civilians in tanks is not right.
