Re: How would you define the terms "right wing" and "far right wing"? Also can you describe the difference between "blind terrorism" and "not blind terrorism"? I'd say that "not blind terrorism" characterizes Spain's ETA and most of the IRA's bomb blasts. The former targets Spanish military/police officers and anti-secessionist politicos only, and the latter also aims at British barracks only or blows up a car in a desolate London suburb at 3:00 AM --after giving the police notice of it... Blind terrorism occured in Italy during the 1970/80s (Bologna railway station,...) and in Belgium in 1985/86 when all the fatalities were innocent passers-by/shoppers. As for the nuance between right-wing and far-right-wing, I'd say that the former is the "brain" whereas the latter is the "hands". Indeed, righ-wing, conservative parties appeal to their constituencies by hyping up "immigration", "moral laxness", and "urban insecurity" but they lack the "action group" to get it through...
