Hezbollah was elected and has grassroots support in the south. By definition, they can’t be terrorists 🤷

Yes. Because here’s the definition of terrorist:

“A person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.”

Hezbollah is part of the legal structure because they were elected by the people of southern Lebanon and are wanted there by those people, and therefore, by definition, cannot be terrorists no matter how much Israel insists so while Israel bombs civilian targets repeatedly.

Save your propaganda buzzwords. No one cares about them anymore.

You don’t have a response so you try to mock my post history? Then you hand the gall to say I’m making mental gymnastics? Typical. cowardly behavior is a hallmark of Zionists.
