Destroying a culture and depriving a family of their livelihood isn't terrorism? You have a very narrow understanding of terrorism and it consequences. Put the lives of Israelis killed by terrorists on a scale with innocent Palestinians killed by Israeli military incursions and see which way it hangs if human lives lost are your only criteria for terror.
