@richards1052 You are correct that Art.7 precludes the wrongfulness of restoring to force in the struggle against alien domination (Jus Contra Bellum), I would also note that it does not alter the rules of Jus in Bello, the law that governs the way in which warfare is conducted. 
@richards1052 According to the principle of equality of belligerents, the Law of Armed Conflict #LOAC applies equally to all parties to an armed conflict - whether they are fighting colonial or alien rule or not - and imposes the same obligations on them.
@richards1052 Also worth recalling that UNGA Res.3210 attaches the struggle for Palestinian self-determination to the Palestine Liberation Organization. Whether non factional militancy could be considered part and parcel of that struggle is a heavily debated question.
