Tim, Webster's seems to disagree with you......the definitions of terror and terrorism:

terror- a state of intense fear

terrorism-a systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion.


Then any systematic violence to coerce people would be terrorism. I think "Websters" has it wrong in this case. (I use the quotes around Webster's because there are probably over a dozen separate dictionaries all called Webster's)

>Probably not.......but unfortunately, when a Israeli shoots a Palestinian child by accident, the Palestinians do not see that way. The years of conflict and tension between the Israelis and Palestinians have convinced them that are no accidental shootings.

Do you know how many women and children are actually in the total of about 1200 Palestinians killed prior to this incursion? Not many. The Arab leaders that talk about "massacres" on TV are counting gunmen and suicide bombers as civilians.
