So, how come the Government of  Israel has an ARMY, while the Government of Gaza only has a MILITARY WING?

ah well there you go, she-el. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.

Hamas is a terroist organization.

According to the ANS link that was provided 

 

Division 102 of the Criminal Code provides that for an organisation to be listed as a terrorist organisation, the Attorney-General must be satisfied on reasonable grounds that the organisation:

 

  1. is directly or indirectly engaged in, preparing, planning, or assisting in or fostering the doing of a terrorist act (whether or not a terrorist act has occurred or will occur); or
  2. advocates the doing of a terrorist act (whether or not a terrorist act has occurred or will occur).

With that logic every military organisation in the world should be classed as a terrorist organisation...

The  Australian Government considers Hamas to be a terrorist organization .

I imagine the Gaza Government considers the Israeli Army to be a terrorist organization.

As Icy said: One man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist.

"Hamas is a terrorist organization. "- yes in "Australia (and the UK, EU, USA". Of course they would call them terrorists, seeing they're backing Israel. - - Other countries might see them as defending their freedom and their country. - Romans, when they invaded England and Ireland, might have seen the Celts and Anglos as terrorists when they defended themselves against colonisation. - - And with all due respect, I don't think it's right Mr Abbott is calling Palestine "disputed territory" rather than "occupied territory", which in fact it is, and which Israel is settling as it's own, with impunity.
