AOC prescribes to the idea that Hamas is exclusively a terrorist group.

Question honestly from a place of ignorance: is it not?

I don’t know much about that group other than the attack a couple years ago. I do know that IDF is a terrorist org because they’re currently committing a genocide.*

Fair, but they said "Hamas supporter," not just "Hamas". I'm just nitpicking, but yeah.

Terrorism is just a propaganda word for common military strategies, which "civilized" nations like to pretend they don't do.

EVERY nation with a military is automatically a terrorist organization by definition. That's literally the primary job of the military - to terrify the opponent into surrendering, or not getting froggy in the first place.

Warfare is when a western country does it, terrorism is when an enemy of the US does it.
