The problem with calling Hamas and the Palestinian Resistance Jihadists, is that you are then saying the French and Polish Resistance and the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto were terrorists and Jewish and Christian Jihadists.
The reality is that many Palestinians are Christian and they are part of Hamas and the Palestinian Resistance. Are they Christian jihadists or is this a slur just for Muslims?
Why are they Jihadists when they are fighting a just and legal cause for freedom from occupation? And, even if they were, what would it matter because under international law they have a right to fight for their freedom in their homeland.

Is there a term for Christian, Jewish and Hindu fanatics, of which there are many, or just one for Muslims, Jihadist?
Using that label when discussing the Palestinian fight for freedom and justice is unfair and unjust.
