In the movie Defiance, there were many times when the people that were staying in the woods used guerrilla tactics to survive. Sometimes, it was during a battle, other times, it was for stealing food. These actions are completely justifiable. They are doing what they can to survive, since they can't survive in the normal world. The Germans are bringing these actions upon themselves because they are making it impossible for the Jewish people to survive, so they are doing whatever is possible to not die.
During the revolutionary war, when we were fighting against the British, we did the same types of things. The British weren't letting us live on our own, so we did what we could to survive. In war, anything is fair. All morals are buried anyway, so there is no point in creating new rules. When you are fighting for survival, you do what you can.
