?jevind L?ngIf they *only* shot at policemen or soldiers, then they weren't terrorists in the modern sense, because anyone not a policeman or soldier could feel safe around them. The terror they generate is very limited and targeted. Very different from Al Qaida or the IRA and ETA, whose bombs could go off anywhere.
If the Baader-Meinhof gang shot a policeman or a soldier (in the back or in the stomach) that was regarded as terrorism.
We seem to define terrorism differently, which makes further discussion of the subejct pointless.Whoa there! I just joined this thread. Those "I'm not gonna talk to you anymore" lines are supposed to be when you're sick of someone. Pulling it on the first post is very bad netiquette.
