    George Washington used violence to advance his political agenda of a sovereign USA. Was George a terrorist?

      Hiroshima and Nagasaki were terror attacks though.

        Oh, well then Muad’dib isn’t a terrorist because he only killed a mass murderer. Military brass are considered combatants, and Brian ordered thousands to their deaths.

      Yes, he was a good terrorist. He wasn’t captured by the enemy.

      Luigi was pretty dumb wearing that creepy outfit at a McD. He was captured. Regardless of how you feel about him, being captured was a major failure.

        Because we often only phrase things as terrorism when it’s “bad”

          Exactly. The baddies are called ‘terrorists’. The term the media uses to describe good terrorists is ‘rebels’ and sometimes ‘freedom fighters’.
