Terrorism is encapsulated in the photo below.
Terrorists are people who did it, the people who supported them and the people who danced in the street when it happened.

Terrorism is nothing but killing innocent people for any reason. Often, people mistake terrorism with people (suicide bombers, etc) attacking other country's people. It's not true completely. Terrorism can take any form - political, social, religious, etc. War on Iraq, Afghanistan, and Lebanon is political terrorism. Segregating a particular community and terming them as terrorists is absolutely unfair. People must understand the real meaning of terrorism first and decide. For example, when Indians were fighting to achieve their freedom, the Britishers branded them as terrorists, which they were not at all. Point-of-view is more important since media is generally biased towards stronger nations).

Terrorism has one meaning: to attack civilian, innocent targets for political leverage.
It is an IRA bomb in a London mailbox. It is a plane into the World Trade Centre.
Any time innocent people are killed and there is no military value in the target, it is terrorism.
This definition has been skewed since 9/11 to read: any time someone without a uniform attacks the US or a US ally.

anyone who negotiates or threatens , for the purpose of achieving a personel , social ,political ,or financial gain , by using force or causing the death of others as a means to achieve the stated goals.
A carefull look at terrorism my leave some wondering who exactly is a terrorist indeed when we look at the methods of negotiation employeed over the years by many nations around the world .
ECONOMIC terrorism is a negotiating tool of developed nations against third world country's.BY only allowing basic medical supply's to a country in need of much improvement and ending the root cause such as poluted water thats infecting thousands with cholera .Nations are forced to grant leases and land development deals they other wise would not in an effort to help the people who suffer.
FINANCIAL terrorism is practiced in much the same way as I mentioned above where financial support is often held back and only given with many strings attached.
WE may look at ourselfs the way others do if we step back look at our practices and see that the world biews america as a terrorist nation that does as it pleases in the name of democracy and peace all along threating and with-holding vital support to those less fortunate then ourselfs .
OFTEN people ask why we do not help certain countries and the answer most obvious to everyone is we have nothing to gain financialy or other wise .
BASES are and where constructed as we saw fit and deals made with local governments around the world .
AT one point no one dared risk refusing the CROWN of ENGLAND or face certain doom from the british navy .MUCH as today the world feels threatened by MILITARISTIC , FINANCIAL , AND ECONOMIC terrorism played out on the world stage by America .

aha, a tough one, the British had referred to American
rebles as terrorist. This was a grab for land and power for the King of England. It wasn't about religious rights, or theology, Iwa more like the big bully on the bloch suddenly loosing its control. There were attrocities on both sides against women and children, not as a norm. It happens in anywar, Al Queda though wants ethnic cleansing mush as the Serfs in Bosnia. They killed thousands. Isralis see the same, There will be unrest forever until, SEE"
