If they are to be sentenced as terrorists then they should be set free as no terrorism happened

Regardless the reasoning for them doing this, you cannot smash someone with a sledgehammer and lie to yourself that you are still the good guy.

The disturbing thing is that the people who damaged property got almost the same sentence as the guy who attacked a woman

You’re 100% a good person if you smash a Nazi with a sledgehammer. Violence does not make you a bad person, the target does.
