Nothing in this section actually describes the right to resist, in the Wikipedia paragraph or in the sources cited. The numbers of those killed are also much worse by now, and are probably better documented at Casualties of the 2023 Israel–Hamas war. Pharos ( talk) 18:21, 16 January 2024 (UTC) reply

There is a difference between a population that became occupied by a foreign power because that foreign power wanted to increase its land holdings or natural resources. An example of this type of occupation is the Arab conquests of 5,000 miles of land from Morocco to India all these lands were Christian Jewish Zoroastrian Buddhist and Hindu

and were stolen by murderous wars to enlarge the caliphate.

The other type of occupation is when a foreign country wants to live in peace with its neighbors

but is attacked by these neighbors .The foreign country is put into a situation where it is forced to seize the lands from which the attacks against it were launched in order protect the lives of its citizens. This occupation is laudable because the foreign country only holds on

to land to preserve life . The foreign country is willing to return the “occupied”land as soon as it is sure that no new attacks will be launched against it.

The Israeli “occupation” is an example of the laudable type because Israel was not seeking to enlarge its land or natural resources and would vacate these lands,as it did the Sinai,if it was sure it would not be attacked again from these territories. 2603:7000:2303:D32F:5062:3DAA:3AC7:A2EF ( talk) 12:50, 23 January 2024 (UTC) reply

That is false. Zionism, according to the first Zionist Congress seeks to obtain all lands in Palestine (from the river to the sea) as a ethno-religious state in accordance with Biblical claims of “historic” Israel. Specifically, Numbers 34: 1-12 and/or Ezekiel 47, 13-20. So, clearly Israel, as guided in its founding ideology IS pursuing the kind of occupation you describe as simply “increasing its lands”. 69.61.242.201 ( talk) 02:48, 17 May 2024 (UTC) reply

As mentioned above it is true that the final section is not really on topic currently, but I think it can be made to be so. There are reliable sources discussing the 7th October attack and hostage-taking in the context of Palestinian resistance, and the issues thereof. This can include the reactions from countries , organisations, etc; condemnations, justifications, etc. Much can be found in the main 7th October attack article. In addition to that, the resistance to the Israeli ground campaign and war in general so far can be covered. To make such a section neutral will require calm collaboration and a range of sources.

@ Ainty Painty: can I change the name of this to Palestinian right to armed resistance in international law? I think this proposed name would be more specific. I can move the article WP:BOLD-ly since it is still a stub. VR _{(Please ping on reply)} 23:38, 11 July 2024 (UTC) reply

To explain more, I've written an article on "Palestinian right to armed resistance in international law". I'm wondering whether to copy and paste into here, or start a new article. VR _{(Please ping on reply)} 23:42, 11 July 2024 (UTC) reply
