Point of  View: Jewish Israeli
Jewish political violence in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict predates the establishment of the state of Israel. Future Israeli leaders, including Prime Ministers Menachem Begin and Yitzhak Shamir, helped plan terrorist attacks against British and Palestinian Arab targets. In more recent times, right wing Jewish extremists have attacked Palestinians, Israeli Arabs, and fellow Israelis in both Israel and the Occupied Territories.

Point of  View: Palestinian
Palestinian political violence in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict predates the establishment of the state of Israel, and has continued ever since. The Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) led a terrorist campaign against Israel and Israeli targets until PLO chairman Yasser Arafat renounced terrorism in 1988. In more recent times, Palestinian terrorist acts have been carried out primarily by the Islamist groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad.
