I get that to westerners "terrorist" is the worst label ever, but terrorism is weak sauce compared to the shit Israel gets up to. "Colonizers" would be a much more appropriate label.
America is colonizers. Israel is colonizers, yes, but they are modern Nazis.

I mean, Hitler took inspiration from Manifest Destiny and American actions in the early 20th century, so Americans at the time weren't meaningfully distinguishable from Nazis on the atrocities front.
Well over 10,000 Palestinians are imprisoned in Israel, many under severe conditions including torture, sexual torture, rape and deliberate starvation. Thousands have not been charged with any crime. Many are children.
The new wave of detentions came on the same day that Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu vowed publicly that there will never be a Palestinian state, as he rubber-stamped Israel’s grossly illegal plan to annex large portions of the occupied West Bank.
The kidnappings continued on Friday morning 12 Sep: Israel is a terrorist state.

I guess the Israelis have realized that people are starting to question the legitimacy of their genocide campaign. So now they need insurance that they can use to get their way? I dont think its gonna work out for them tho.

I’ve heard stories dating to the 1930s-40s from my Polish family about being walked in lines described similarly to this

I didn’t think they’re hostages… That implies they’ll be used for negotiation. This doesn’t feel good

They always are. Freeing Palestinian hostages/detainees is pretty much at the top of any list of demands by Palestinian resistance organizations. By handing them over they can avoid making any other concessions during ceasefire negotiations and the like.
Do Palestinians living in the West Bank have a right to defend themselves from these invading Israeli terrorists? Do you condemn the Israeli murderers and hostage takers?

It’s not intended as a pejorative, so its perceived weakness is irrelevant.
It’s a precise term with a very specific definition in international law, and that’s the point.
It's not, actually. At least not that I know of.

Didn’t you know hostages can only be taken from groups on the official ally list?

Who are you asking?

Whoever needs asking really.
Reminds me of images of 1940s, Germany and Poland except with Jews instead of Palestinians.
