.....................Silliness.
You have terrorists in every country - sure.
You do not have state sponsored terrorism in every country.
You do not have state sponsored media promoting and glorifying terrorism in every country.
You do not have state sponsored religion promoting and glorifying terrorism in every country.
Now imagine the ones that meet all three criteria, and you''ll be in the right ballpark if it is clue you seek.

Israel and Palestine would be a correct answer to all your questions.

yeah thats silly allright.
State sponsored terror is a matter of perception. IN most of the world America is the largest sponsor of state terror. Lots of it is based on religion for most redneck American fanatics.
IN terms of American foreign policy terrorists should only denote a religious fanatic committing a violent act.
Some freaks try to give everybody a terrorists label for all sorts of reason even Political adversary's and common criminals a. Not that violent crime isn't terrifying. Just that for clarity with the Americans terrorists should be reserved to religious nut bags. Though most bigots will make outright remarks about Muslims or try to infer with small little bulleted lists that only Muslims are terrorists. While all fanatic monotheistic religions have terrorists.

Terrorism is just a word.
For the US soldiers in vietnam, the kids with bombs were terrorists, for the vietnamese, they were freedom fighters. To the british, the american revolutionaries were terrorists (they didn't fight fair, never face to face), to the americans they were freedom fighters. To the russian army, the muhajadeen were terrorists, to americans they were freedom fighters.
Do you see where I'm going with this?
Terrorism is just a word, and words have different meanings in different contexts.

Terrorism is a tactic, nothing more.
It's rather difficult to say the US military are terrorists, when they do not use terrorism tactics.

excellent post and also it should be reminded that if a group does not have an organized military then they are terrorist when they fight for their rights.

When did I state they were terrorists (though carpet bombing is a pretty nasty way of getting a message across)?
