An example of what you're saying is the pkk in Turkey. Turkey calls them terrorists, while a lot of people still view them as a party fighting for freedom. But the pkk and it's armed wing have never committed indiscriminate mass massacres of civilians. The endgoal of the pkk is also not the total destruction of the Turks, but rather the self determination of the Kurds.

Hamas on the other hand has as endgame the total genocide of Jews and has no qualms in indiscriminately massacring civilians.

About Hamas there is no nuance: they are genocidal terrorists.

There is no proof Palestinian fighters ‘beheaded’ babies. The only source is a radical settler.

Please be very careful. We don't really know what the truth is but this story may be a part of disinformation effort used right now to justify military action against civilians.
