      Terrorism is a useless term, it only exists to cast a pall over actions that strike against the hegemony of the global west

      There is no definition of terrorism that doesn’t also cover every military action the United States and its allies have engaged in

      Is it not terrorism to bombard a civilian population with white phosphorous?

      Is it not terrorism to maim and cripple non-violent protestors?

      Is it not terrorism to bulldoze someone’s home while they’re still in it?
