    The use of violence or the threat of violence, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political goals.

    By that definition at least I’d say it fits Israel’s actions.

    That does not mean they are not also guilty of other acts, but terrorism is a tactic they employ to keep the citizens of Palestine oppressed and enacting political goals such as the continuation of Hamas (as well as directly funding them) which helps them muster internal support for campaigns of colonialism and genocide.

    Israels crimes are multi-faceted, terrorism is but one of them.
