TradeSurplusthere was a criminal car bombing against the police down here a while ago so I thought I'd better whack that in...
To include your last point into this definition and also a mention elsewhere by Paul that he wants to separate purely criminal groups from terrorists,
I'll expand it slightly to:Getting close... but its late and I'm tired..I'll look into it later..
A violent irregular or guerrilla group with political aims that does not have a reasonable level of popular support and is not opposing a repressive or tyrannical regime OR a violent irregular or guerrilla group with political aims that uses certain (defined elsewhere) illegitimate means.
If we could get agreement from Paul that this is how he defines terrorism I think we might be able to put an end to this "definition" subthread.I'd love that...
Now, what were we talking about before definitions took over?Some book by some guy I think..
