    I don’t understand your logic at all. Being anti-terrorism is not equal to being pro-genocide and vice versa.
    It isn’t a black and white world and taking a stance doesn’t require sith lord reasoning.

    Saying that you condemn both assault and murder doesn’t make one worse and the other less so. It’s a simple acknowledgement of wrong acts being wrong which is perfectly fine.

      Equating all bad as simply “bad” regardless of context, intensity, direction, and more is a privledged western position that seeks to undermine liberatory movements and entrenches the status quo. The status quo may be “bad,” but by your analysis so it overturning the status quo. This is the kind of moralism that was used against the Civil Rights Movement, Palestinian Liberation, anti-slavery movements, and more.
