Now, I don't hear of Israeli terrorist groups. I have heard of the Israeli army making attacks and when those attacks target clearly nonmilitary targets, I believe that the Israeli government must stop them. The UN has passed multiple resolutions (with the US support) against the nation of Israel when necessary. I'd be happy to research any Israeli terrorist group that you might wish to name, I'm sure that there are some out there. I do know, however, that Hamas and Islamic Jihad are groups that are not part of the Palestinian army and are not part of the Palestinian government who do attack civilian targets. These groups must be shut down by the Palestinian Authority for there to be any chance of peace and a settlement in this region.
Skan, you brought up this discussion. I didn't start it or invite it. If it isn't going your way, I'm sorry. We are free here (I believe) to discuss anything and to continue discussions even if the originator doesn't wish it. If you want me to get Muslim takes on this issue, please point me to websites that have (factual) information and I'll be happy to read that information. I'll even be happy to comment on it.

Well, we obviously have different takes on this. Because personally, I believe that when, from the moment you are born, you live in a country that was yours, now in a constant state of war. When your relatives are being killed everyday, their houses destroyed by bulldozer, when young children throwing rocks are mercilessly killed, sometimes whole families. I believe when a person suffers that, and goes to blow him/herself up in enemy territory. I think no, they are not terrorists. I think, they should try to be more organized and try to kill enemy leaders. People who order these srtikes on their families.
An Israeli terrorist group, it's one big one. The army. They attack civilians clearly. Unless that has been omited from the news you get wherever you are you probably know that.
You are free to take this discussion wherever you like, if I'm not happy with how it is going I would blame my own ignorance and lack of information. This is my email:

Email me after a while, I will hopefully provide you with a good source on that info. I can't now since I'm on dial up and I'm very busy with studying. Email me if I seem to forget in about two months. I really want you to get the whole picture here.
Thanks for participating in this.
