Is the War on Palestine legitimate?

The term "War on Palestine" is nebulous. Does it refer to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict as a whole? Does it refer to Operation Cast Lead? Does it refer to Operation Pillar of Smoke? Does it refer to the Separation Fence? Does it refer to the military occupation of the West Bank? Does it refer to Arab countries holing Palestinians up in refugee camps for three generations? Does it refer to Lebanese military incursions into Palestinian Refugee Camps in Lebanon? Does it refer to how Palestinian passports and visas are not seen as legitimate pieces of paper? Unless the term "War on Palestine" can be defined, we cannot begin a discussion. Additionally, the word "legitimate" is almost as nebulous as it can refer to moral right, legal right, classification procedures, and numerous other things.
