The expression Palestinian terrorism is commonly used to indicate terrorist acts committed by some Palestinians, in particular against Israelis, and occasionaly against nationals of other countries.

The moral justification of the Palestinian attacks is often argued about. In addition it is also open to discussion whether they are terrorist. The Palestinians are under occupation, and the Geneva Convention grants such a people the right of resistance, which by definition can not be carried out by a regular army.
