Terrorism was used to by the zionists to achieve Israel, but it did not lead to lasting success, because to this day the descendants of the victims of zionist terrorism are resisting occupation of their lands, but they are failing due to use of terrorism (killing of innocent civilians) rather than full-scale war or forgiveness/assimilation.
Terrorism was used by Islamic militants to bring about an Islamic government in Egypt by killing Anwar Sadat, but it brought to power an even more secular and anti-Islamic militant ruler.
Terrorism has been used by Pakistan-supported Kashmiris to gain independence from India for many years, and now they are realizing that the only solution is a peaceful one.
Terrorism has been used for more than 40 years by Marxist terrorists in Colombia, they have not gained any sympathy among the frightened hard-working masses, and they have made staunch enemies among the relatives of victims.

Several say yes. We may have militarily won the war in Vietnam, but we lost it in the press. Are the Vietnamese better off? The ones in Southern California say their brethren aren't.

Terrorism has been practiced by one group or another for 6000 years. Lasting? I would say so. The US used it on England, Israel used it on Egypt, The French commoner used it on the Monarchy, France used it on Germany, East Germany used it on West Germany, North Korea used it on South Korea, etc, etc, etc.

Terrorists need to get a life. They are jealous of the success of the west and just want a piece of it for free. They want land, power, and money...ha...the exact same things they blame the west for having..what a bunch of ironic idiots.
The Muslim faith needs a revamping. They are teaching and brainwashing too many young people about the evils of the west when they are the evil ones. If you want a better life..then work for it!! They are such hipocrits..they hate America but will gladly enjoy their hollywood movies, soft drinks, food, etc. ...what a bunch of boneheads!!! Islamic leaders and every mosque needs to teach peace and only peace as we do in our Christian churches. In these poor countries they need milk and bread for the kids to eat...but you turn on the tube and what do you see, a kid firing a rifle in the air and proclaiming death to the usa...like he even knows what the hell he is talking about. Brainwashed..from the top down..shame shame shame on the muslim faith for doing this to the kids. Telling them there will be endless virgins if you strap this bomb on your waist...ha...what a joke. There is a major flaw in the Muslim faith..they say Mohammed was a fighter or even a terroist himself and fought and killed alongside others therefore its ok to kill and fight like our great leader...this is the flaw exposed. Jesus preached only peace and died proclaiming his love for mankind although he could have easily saved himself...he proclaimed the ultimate sacrifice, his love for everyone and thus left us with that legacy. Yes, some would argue about bad Christians in the past..but...remember this is in the past and modern Christians now understand the true meaning of religion Peace and Love just as Jesus taught...not...fight and kill every man you see if he is not a muslime believer...FLAW. It is up to the Muslim leaders and followers to believe in peace and work with the west. The rich will share and help as they are doing now. Iraqs debts were wiped out by the UN and they are in much better shape and much more free than ever...what an example...wake up and smell the coffee muslim people and believe in peach or else we Christians will kick the crap out of you for good (just kidding..peace out)

Depends on the goal of terrorists.
If the goal is to make people dead, then yes it has brought lasting success.
