Imi they are fighting for the freedom to live fairly in their own lands without being harassed by israelis everyday. So yes they are freedom fighters. Are their acts of terrorism justified? Killing an innocent life is never justified whether it's in the form of terrorism or anti-terrorism. I was watching CNN yesterday when it showed the video of a suicide bomber. His message was very clear. His message was for the people of the US and UK. He said that people of US and UK your government is suppressing us and killing a lot of our innocent people. They are doing it because of your support. You have to stop supporting them. I really felt bad for them. It wasn't like he said he's going to kill himself and others so that he can go to heaven or anything. He simply said he's doing it so that people in US and UK will start questioning the activities of their Governments and stop supporting their unfair decisions. "It is not the cause, it is the method that distinguish between freedom fighters and Terrorists!!!!!!!!!!". - I don't find this statement earth shattering or anything. There is really no difference between freedom fighter and terrorists. In fact they are the same. The terrorists are called freedom fighters by their people. You might have meant to point out the difference between established government and terrorists. If you look at the current war between the hezebullah and israel, there is not much difference besides that fact that the established govt of israel with more sophisticated weaponry from the US are killing more people in lebanon and palestine. After 3 weeks of fighting the Israelis are still saying they are going to rid Lebanon of Hezbullahs. They should know by now that Lebanon IS Hezbullah country.
