The Palestinian resistance is to their people considered honorable and patriotic just as ANC was considered as such by the non-whites in South Africa. This is the case in all anti-colonial resistance situations. That just a fact.
As Nelson Mandela said:
".....we felt that without violence there would be no way open to the African people to succeed in their struggle against the principle of white supremacy."
The UK and much of the west designated the ANC a terrorist group. The U.S. only removed the ANC and its members from the terrorist list in 2008. The designation of groups as terrorists is a farce for the most part. The Muhajedin of Afghanistan were freedom fighters when they were fighting the Russians and magically became terrorists when they changed their name to Taliban and were fighting the west.
While I can understand that in your view the Palestinians should passively submit to occupation and oppression, the Palestinians are acting in the same manner as any other colonized and oppressed people through out history. I don't understand why you insist on singling them out.
