Gustave.. it's not the means that bother me so much, but the targets. Even the Jews, with few exceptions, primarily targeted the British military and not civilian targets, during their guerilla war prior to 1948.

But these Palestinian extremists have been deliberately targeting unarmed civilians with these bombings, being too cowardly to take on the Israeli military. Their intended victims have no means of fighting back. This makes it an act of murder, not war.

And that's the general difference between an act of terror and an act of violence against an occupying power.
