Lots of things equate to 'terrorize' like scary dreams in the night. Lots of people are terroized by the very thought of war.

The terms terrorism and terrorist in the context I have been using them equate to : "A terrorist is a person who intends to harm innocents in order to bring a negative effect on his enemy. A terrorist group encourages some or all of its members to use this strategy."

I'm certain you can come up with loads of partisan pettyisms to give the appearance of equitable. Practically speaking, I'd rather stick with the reality of what a terrorist does that makes their actions heinous and condemnable. War is awful and innocent people suffer as a result of war and just about every other human endeavor. Would it be possible for you to lay your party pettyness aside long enough to recognize these distinctions?
