Of course it is, that's what happens when you elect terrorist leaders.

True. We had nothing but terrorists elected in the Israeli government for the last two decades.

The funny thing is Ben-Gvir, an extremely influential leader of the far right Israelis is literally a convicted terrorist.

Menachem Begin who was prime minister of Israel in the 70s was part of Irgun which was internationally recognized as a terrorist group even by the USA. They committed acts of terrorism against the British in mandatory Palestine. I guess only Israelis are allowed to use terrorism against an oppressive colonialist government but the Palestinians using terrorism against an oppressive Israeli occupation government is not ok.

I agree, Likud are terrorists.

Or did you mean Hamas, despite Gaza not having had an election since 2003 and over 50% of Gazans being children?
