The idea is that, when conventional warfare fails, you fall back to a more drastic and desperate form of warfare: terrorism. I think most would agree that terrorism against Nazi military targets in order to slow the holocaust would be justified. Even a peacenik like me.
To me this isn't what I would consider terrorism personally. I have to agree with Vincentt this sounds more like guerilla warfare. Terrorism for example is walking on to a bus with a bomb with tons of nails in you and go boom so you can kill as many as possible and the nails can become projectilie weapons.
