The funny thing is, according to the UN's ICJ, it doesn't have a right to defend itself (in the occupied palestinian territories).
Another hexbearianistite (can't remember who, sorry) mentioned the 2004 ICJ advisory that was regarding Israel building a wall on the green line, which is the border decided at the 1949 armistice (and often referred to as the 1967 or pre-1967 border). Here they agreed that the wall was illegal, due to quite a few reasons: it restricts freedom of movement and self determination of Palestinians, it also went beyond the agreed green line and extended into Palestinian territories. Since then, Israel ignored the ruling and continued construction.
What I gather from this is that even the ICJ thinks that Israel is an occupying power, and does therefore not have the right to defend itself.
