@amirtheawesome1: Hamas is easily a terrorist group and I am saying this as an Arab. Those attacks are horrific on more levels than people seem to say. Because even if we ignore what shouldn't be ignored which is the death of innocent Israelis, women, men, and children , they also definitely knew of the consequences. Those are the people you're supposed to protect and you let them die in order to keep innocents as hostages. 7,000 people died of the people Hamas is supposedly trying to protect. And you traded their death for what? Would even getting out 1000 Hamas operatives in return (Which is a VERY generous estimate) be worth the death of your own people?
