The Palestinian terrorists are provided guns by their government. As usual, gun laws basically only are relevant to the law-abiding.

It’s very hard to stop violence like this in an occupied land.

Occupied? There's no contesting government claim on the land.
And right/wrong has almost nothing to do with the level of violence. Terrorist movements only exist where there is outside funding for the terrorism. If oppression were the factor then Western Sahara would be a bloodbath--but since it's Muslim vs Muslim with no outside backers we almost never hear a peep about it.

Except for the little detail that the former owners of the land quickly disclaimed ownership as soon as Israel captured them (they never wanted them, the whole purpose was to prevent the formation of a Palestinian state)--at this point there is no competing claim and Gaza is claimed by nobody at all.
