Israel has been explicit about what it’s carrying out in Gaza. Why isn’t the world listening?

I'm genuinely intrigued by how you separate those terms in reference to the Hamas attack on the music festival.

Not being confrontational. I'm struggling with a mean does or does not equal average does or does not descriptive statistic conversation on another thread.

Off the cuff, my take has been "Hamas is a terrorist organization. The Israeli Military is a much bigger and more agregious terrorist organization. Let them have eachother and let Israili and Palestinian civilians make music together".

So here I am genuinely interested in your (and anyone elses) answer to "what is a terrorist attack, and how does it differ from a war crime? Bonus points: In current events, explain how Hamas has committed war crimes, but not terrorist attacks?"
