An interesting qoute I came across.

"Two forms of terrorism can provoke such a situation (breakdown of the sate):Blind terrorism (Committing massacres indiscriminately which cause a large number of victims.) and selective terrorism (eliminate chosen persons)."-Yves Guerin-Serac

Yves Guérin-Sérac (alias Jean-Robert de Guernadec, alias Yves Guillou, alias Ralf) was a French anti-Communist Roman Catholic activist, former officer of the French army and veteran of the First Indochina War (1945–54), the Korean War (1950–53) and the Algerian War of Independence (1955–62). He was also a member of the elite troop of the 11ème Demi-Brigade Parachutiste du Choc, which worked with the SDECE (French intelligence agency) and a founding member of the Organisation armée secrète (OAS) right-wing terrorist group engaged in the struggle for a "French Algeria".[1] He has been identified, in the 1990s, as one of the main instigators of the strategy of tension in Italy, and as the main organizer of the 1969 Piazza Fontana bombing.

Terrorism is just the attainment of publicity, and the aim of instilling fear into a targeted body of people.

No matter which way someone trys to slice it, terrorism is terrorism.

Leading terrorism researcher Professor Martin Rudner, director of the Canadian Centre of Intelligence and Security Studies at Ottawa's Carleton University, defines "terrorist acts" as attacks against civilians for political or other ideological goals, and said:

There is the famous statement: 'One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.' But that is grossly misleading. It assesses the validity of the cause when terrorism is an act. One can have a perfectly beautiful cause and yet if one commits terrorist acts, it is terrorism regardless.

Thats more of a obvious statement
