Without warning on Saturday, Gaza’s militant Hamas rulers attacked Israel by air, land and sea. Millions of Israelis in the country’s south awoke to the searing sound of incoming rockets.
Emm… Attacking civilians is, by definition, terrorizing citizens. On the other hand, apartheid is something you should read about, study its definition, and what exactly happens in Israel, and then think whether it’s the correct use of the word.
In December 2019, the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination[5] announced commencing a review of the Palestinian complaint that Israel’s policies in the West Bank amount to apartheid.[6] Soon after this, two Israeli human rights NGOs, Yesh Din (July 2020), and B’Tselem (January 2021) issued separate reports that concluded, in the latter’s words, that “the bar for labeling the Israeli regime as apartheid has been met.”[7][8][9][10] In April 2021, Human Rights Watch became the first major international human rights body to say Israel had crossed the threshold
Yes, Apartheid is very much the correct word.
Adam and Moodley wrote in 2006 that Israeli Palestinians are “restricted to second-class citizen status when another ethnic group monopolizes state power” because of legal prohibitions on access to land, as well as the unequal allocation of civil service positions and per capita expenditure on educations between “dominant and minority citizens”.
While the argument is weaker (but still strong) for Israel proper, Israeli policies in the West Bank and East Jerusalem are Apartheid no questions asked.
Because they are fighting a country doing oppression and apartheid and not “terrorizing citizens”.
they actually do terrorizing citizens right now

Some mental gymnastics spotted.
