I frankly don’t see, whatever its goals, how systematically attacking civilians can not be terrorism. (Since Native Americans to my knowledge don’t do that, I wouldn’t call them terrorists, no).
This the first time you’ve heard the classic phrase “one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter”?
Because yes, oppressors always see oppressed freedom fighters as terrorists, because the only way to get your freedom from an oppressor is to take it, usually by force.
Terror org? The fuck? I didn’t realize that fighting for your freedom from a brutal oppressor made you a terror org.
Do you call native Americans terrorists too?
Terrorism, according to Wikipedia, is “the use of violence against non-combatants to achieve political or ideological aims.”
Hamas is doing that, see examples.

This definition fits israel just as well or better, do you typically refer to it as a terror org?
Israel is a state, not an organization.
Pedantry, of course. Call it a terrorist state if you must, it changes nothing.
If native Americans today did organised attacks on Americans it would be considered terrorism in pretty sure.
Stupid Natives doing terror attacks on those peaceful Americans that God promised the land to because they were white.
Good thing Americans defended themselves into coincidentally taking over all of America.
True, colonialism bad.
Maybe he confused them with Hamaas, the magazine from Lehi, The Zionist Terrorist Organization That Tried To Form An Alliance With The Nazis
