> Israel and America attack to eliminate threat by destroying centers of terror. I recall America dropping food supplies to minimize suffering of the general population. Are you telling me that US tried to maximize the suffering of general population by dropping food supplies?

The dictionary's definition doesn't mention anything about suffering, just intimidation.

>America and Israel does via the message that terrorism would not be tolerated rather than purposly inflicting pain on that population. There is a BIG difference here

You're not seeing my point... my point is that, as much as it doesn't serve my cause (nor Bush's), the literal meaning of the word "terrorism" is not quite what we use it to mean.
