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

Examples of such organizations are Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Fatah, El-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, National Front for the Liberation of Palestine, and other organizations.

The status of the above organizations, to name a few, as terrorist groups has been rectified by the US State Department List of Terrorist Organizations. In addition, the EU diffrentiates between the military and political wings of these organizations but does not dispute the military wings' being terrorist groups.

Whereas the moral justification of the Palestinian attacks is often argued about, it does doubtlessly constitute terrorism, as it involves the death of civilian non-combatants in order to create a public uproar aiming at political ends. See Terrorism against Israel for details about the history of attacks against Israel.

Close to 800 Israeli civillians of all ages and all political associations have been murdered in acts of Palestinian terror since the signing of the Oslo Peace Accords. Proportionally, this would equal about twenty times the 9-11 terrorist attack on the US in just under three years' time. Terrorist attacks have taken place in restaurants, discotheques, shopping malls, flea-markets, buses, universities and even in civillian homes.

Over 50% of the Palestinian public support these acts of undifferentiated violence against Israeli civillians, as part of the Palestinian "uprising for statehood".

For settling "neutrality disputes", the following links are supplied. Israeli terrorist groups are miniscule, have managed to create very limited damage and are hunted constantly by Israeli police, military (IDF) and national security bodies (such as the reknowned Shin Bet). The Israeli public has fewer than 1% support for these groups, and does not condone such behavior. No person associated with these groups has a right to be elected for any public post, and no political party which acknowledges violence as a means can hold seats in Parliament.

Contrast this with: Kahanist terrorism and Israeli state terrorism.
