Ted, why do you continue to accuse the American forefathers of terrorism? Do you think terrorism is nothing more than war by other means?

If so, I urge you to think about the implications of that belief before advancing it any further.

Besides, my point was that if your definition of terrorism is that innocent civilians are killed, then our forefathers, august as they may be, were terrorists.

Yes if that was my definition of terrorist then the founders of this country would be terrorists or at least some of them where. They waged war and in war innocent civilians do get killed. Of course this is not and has never been my definition of terrorism.

My definition of a terrorist would be someone who targets and kills innocent civilians deliberately so as to cause terror. Waging war knowing that some innocent civilians will be killed doesn't make you a terrorist.
