Compared to the USA, Hamas is small time.

America is the global terrorist.

Sound familiar..? This from the Nuremberg Trials.

Ohlendorf argued that even if Hitler was mistaken in his belief that the Bolsheviks, Jews, Gypsies, and others posed a mortal threat to Germany, the “executive measures” by the Einsatzgruppen were justified as anticipatory self-defense. The defendant insisted that he was in no position to second-guess the Head of State. Accepting Hitler’s orders without question showed the absence of any criminal intent. If the accused believes in good faith that anticipatory self-defense is lawful, the criminal intent required for conviction is lacking. Hence Ohlendorf, admitted killer of about 90,000 innocent people, should be acquitted—despite his assurance that he would do it again. Ohlendorf’s reasoning struck me as a recipe for world catastrophe.

History shows us much that we learn little from. Freedom fighter, terrorist or just poor foot soldiers doing what he (or she) was ordered to do ?

It has always been that way for the soldier, not everyone likes killing people like Ben Roberts-Smith.

Afghans were called terrorists by whom? Only globally designated terrorist organisation are called terrorists.

To paraphrase your silly final line: of course you are wrong as usual.

Ordinary Afghans actively worked to get the foreign devils out of their country. Most Taliban there were Afghans. It follows that any Afghan that resisted was Taliban and therefore a terrorist.

Any person or organisation that does not do what American interests say, is by default a terrorist. It's convenient, that wasy they can be summarily executed rather than being tried as a criminal.

What a truly evil approach to controlling the planet.
