Israel is not waging a war of terror, they are waging a war of survival, defending against sworn enemies. Their tactics are often harsh, but their motives have nothing to do with terrorism, and rhetoric accusing them of terrorism adds nothing productive to the dialogue.
Palestine is also not waging a war of terror, although their methods more closely resemble terrorist activities. Refusing to acknowledge their desire for a homeland also adds nothing to the dialogue. Both sides need to dial it back, and come to the negotiating table with a real willingness to consider alternatives. Otherwise, they will still be killing each other for hundreds of years.
