Sure why couldn't they be? Terrorism is obviously a negative word, but it's definitions can vary in degree of negativity, meaning a low degree of negativity in its definition can make the word a synonym of bullying.

Yes to a point, and America is viewed by the vast majority of the world as the greatest bully that ever existed. Consider this, the current war on terror is just another Holy War.
Lots of Americans still believe that Iraq was involved in 9/11 although Iraq had nothing whatsoever to do with 9/11 and the media rhetoric to justify the invasion in the first place was nothing more than a politically orchestrated litany of lies. That's religion for you.
President George W Bush has made it clear that he reads the Bible, prays to God, and that God told him to invade Iraq. Very recently he referred to the USA’s war against terror as a war against Islamic Fascists. The other side, the Islamic Fascists, of course refer to G W Bush and the USA as Christian Infidel Dogs and so the Holy War of Words goes on, like the Axis of Good (Christianity) at war against the Axis of Evil (Islam).
The above is quite mild to all the evil religious words being thrown by each side, but of course, it doesn’t stop there does it. The same sides, Christianity and Islam, are physically at war with each other, murdering innocent men, women and children in the process.
Humanity has a horrific track record of atrocities and killing caused by religion, and this war seems to be no different, just another Holy War in the name of religion, inflicting it’s madness once again onto humanity. Religion is so evil, it has even infected the President of the United States of America.

No. I think that bullying is done by larger states and nations against weaker ones.
Terrorism is what weaker organizations do when they are unable to meet a larger military force on the terms of the latter.

Bullying is an end in itself whereas terrorism is a means to an end.

Bush = Bullying = Terorrism
I get it now.
Bush wants to die, and he's riling people up against him
Makes perfect sense!
