The concept of the suicide bomber isn't inherently terrorist. Where that bomber is set off decides if it's terrorism. Blowing up a military checkpoint? That's a legitimate target. Targeting a government building? Again, a viable target if you're at war. Bridges, power stations, infrastructure? Again, all legitimate targets in wartime.
But a cafe full of coffee drinking teenagers? A market full of mothers shopping for vegetables? A bus full of people trying to get to work? That's not war, that's murder. The enemy of the Palestinians is the Israeli government and military, not its people. To attack people who have little or no power over the conflict is terrorism, and this party is right to condemn it and throw its supporters out a window.
