So if you're just an 9-5 office based terrorist doing admin stuff, you're off limits?

Yes, if you think about actions rather than labels it makes sense. Otherwise every office worker in Israel would be a legitimate target too.

As a target for assassination? Yeah.

It makes sense. Blowing up a military HQ with a clerk in it makes sense. Blowing up a clerk walking on the sidewalk seems like a wasted effort.

You can come up with all sorts of justifications for anything. At the end of the day, time and time again, over the top escalation usually hurts the stronger party. Asymmetrical warfare doesn’t garner sympathy or military advantages to the stronger party.
