Just because a cute little sound bite gets published, does mean it is grounded in reality - or true.

Truncated: Mural "Resistance is Not Terrorism" with a silhouette of "Dalal al-Maghribi"

Dalal Mughrabi (Arabic language: دلال المغربي‎, Dalāl al-Muɣrabī; ca. 1959 – 11 March 1978) was a Palestinian militant who was a member of the Fatah faction of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and participated in the 1978 Coastal Road massacre in Israel. The attack resulted in the death of 38 Israeli civilians, including 13 children.

(COMMENT)

Today in Palestine, the expression "act of terrorism" means criminal acts directed against a State and intended or calculated to create terror in the mindes of particular persons, or a group of persons or the general public [See the International Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of Terrorism (1938)]

Nowhere is the definition more applicable than in the application and description of the Hostile Arab Palestinians that somehow have come to believe that killing unarmed civilians and children is a courageous act performed proud place act and worthy of a place in Palestinian history. Nor is it even permissible to incite the people to commit a terrorist act or acts motivated by extremism and intolerance.

These "acts of terrorism" ⟴ irrespective of their motivation, whenever and by whomsoever committed, as one of the most serious threats to peace and security; international law unequivocal condemns all acts, methods and practices of terrorism as criminal and unjustifiable, even if the underlying motivation is resistance. THERE IS NO JUSTIFICATION for any act → intended to cause death or serious bodily injury to the civilian population, or to any other person not taking an active part in the hostilities, the purpose of such act, by its nature or context, is to intimidate a population, or to compel a government or an international organization to do or to abstain from doing any act.

Incitement to violence by attempting to promote the idea that the violence is "legal" (somehow not terrorism) is illegal on its own.

Most Respectfully,
