    Default What Makes a Terrorist a Terrorist?

    I was just reading the thread about racism. I posted my beliefs and something hit me. A lot of racist people stereotype muslims as terrorists.
    And yes, some of the extreme terrorists are muslim, suicide bombers etc.
    But there are a lot of other acts of terrorism.
    Would you call Extreme Animal Rights Activists terrorists? They are.
    Would you call football hooligans Terrorists? They are too.

    Please tell me what you think makes a terrorist a terrorist Kthnx.

    But the thing is, I can understand why football hooligans/animal activists would want to protest/ fight each other, but I find it hard to understand why terrorists would want to...

    I thoroughly agree with that. However in all cases there is no need for violence.

    But then if you do think about religious motivated terrorism in just a little bit more depth. They are doing what they do for their God. They think that if they blow themself up, they are special.

    I know I think they are lunatics too. But there is reason there.

    Some do it as they see no other way of expressing their views. Some do it to evoke fear to get their way, such as Malcome X (I wish i had that name). Terrorism has been going on since the dawn of civilization, its only now that people are really making a big thing of it.

    I think the most significant terrorist attack may be the black hands killing of Archduke Franz Ferdinand (not the band) which sparked World War One...

    Yep. That's a pretty significant attack.

    Ever since 9/11 its like terrorism is an Islamic related crime.

    Have people forgotten the IRA?
