Well, Palestinians have the right to resistance. That right includes the right to armed resistance. At the same time, armed resistance is subject to the laws of war, and there are very clear regulations. that separate legitimate acts of armed resistance from acts of armed resistance that are not legitimate.

There's been almost exclusive focus on the attacks on civilian population centers and the killings of civilians on October 7th. What is much more much less discussed to the point of amnesia is that there were very extensive attacks on Israeli military and intelligence facilities on October 7th. I would make a very clear distinction between those two.

I think what you had on October 7th was an effort by Hamas to seize Israeli territory and population centers. And kill civilians. That's not what I said.

What I said is I think I would not describe the effort to seize Israeli territory as in and of itself illegitimate, as a separate issue from the killing of Israeli civilians where in those cases where they had been deliberately targeted, that's very clearly illegitimate.
