What terrorism is varies depending on who you are asking.
I like this quote here



You have to remember one thing though




But personally I like what this says about terrorism

That's as good a definition as any....

Despite legal definitions, terrorism means different things to different people. While the threat to the modern world appears to involve more Islamist extremists than any other type of terrorist, it should be clearly acknowledged that not all Muslims are terrorists and not all terrorists are Muslim. In fact, many Muslims are in as much danger under the radicalized practices of Islam as any other people, because they divert from the extremist interpretation of Islam.

Terrorism is an evil method of forcing an ideology on others. World War II showed us how evil such actions truly are, and Islamic fascism does not differ greatly from Nazism. The main distinction is religious. Hitler wanted to force his worldview, his perfect race ideology, on the public and murder anyone who did not go along with it. Islamic extremists want to force their radical interpretation of a religion on the public and murder those who refuse to convert to it.

Terrorism has been around for centuries, although it’s been defined or described differently throughout the years. Today, it amounts to bullying, only on a grand scale, because these bullies have powerful weapons and fighters who embrace death as martyrdom. There is nothing more dangerous than a terrorist who believes that he has nothing to lose.
