It's sounding like you are quoting old Bill Clinton and suggesting terrorism, "depends on what your definition of is, is." Sorry, terrorism is terrorism -- there is no difference between the terrorism perpetrated in the name of the IRA, islam, the crypts, the bloods, the KKK, etc. beyond scope, methodology, effectiveness, motivation, and which side of the argument you're on. :^)

Islamic Brownshirts The American Spectator ^ \| 26 September 2006 \| Jed Babbin spectator.org Of the many wrong lessons the Clinton presidency taught us, the cheap apology is one that continues to haunts us. The world became accustomed to America -- through our lip-quivering president -- apologizing reflexively for every offense, real or imagined. Apologies have since become expensive. Because the radical Islamists demand -- and we supply -- an endless stream of apologies for conduct that is either entirely justified or inoffensive, they are winning their campaign of intimidation. Like Hitler's Brownshirt "Sturm Abteilung," the Islamofascists seek political dominance by violence and intimidation. And we, like the Weimar Republic before us, are letting the fascists get away with it. Some, such as Charles Krauthammer, find irony in those who inflict violence to prove Islam is a religion of peace. To some, there is humor to be mined from the irony. For the rest of us, it's among the few parts of this war we can fight personally. We must summon up outrage at fascists who have intimidated the president of the United States out of calling them what they manifestly are. President Bush (I recall only one speech, and only two uses of the term) called them Islamic fascists. Which happens to be an historically defined and precisely accurate term. The cacophony of complaints from phony allies such as the Saudis and Islamists here intimidated the president out of further use of this enormously useful political term..

Israel on Alert Against al-Qaeda Strike Arutz Sheva ^ \| Sep 25, '06 israelnationalnews.com (IsraelNN.com) Acting on credible intelligence community warnings, Israel is on alert against a possible al-Qaeda attack using non-Arab terrorists. The move follows a 9/11 anniversary video in which acting al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahri warns Israel may be among the terror organization’s next targets. The terror attack in Mike’s Pub in Tel Aviv, in 2003, was carried out by two terrorists who had little difficulty entering the country, using their British passports. Security agencies are now looking at such a scenario as being more likely than Arab terrorists seeking to strike out at an Israeli target. April 30, 2003 – A suicide bomber blew himself up in front of Mike's Pub on Herbert Samuel Street In Tel Aviv after the security guard blocked him from entering. 3 persons were murdered and 55 injured in the attack. Both Hamas and the Fatah Tanzim claimed responsibility for the attack.
