They both fight against freedom.
Would that include these 'Militias' that are prevelant all over the US?
A terrorist specifically targets civilians.
Of course armed struggle is justified, especially if against foreign occupation.
So I guess the IRA and the PLO are justified in their actions?
If you like him, he's a freedom fighter. If you don't, he's a terrorist.
Yes the IRA are justified in their strugle against English oppression.
Tiocfaidh Ar La!
Fuck off, the IRA hate & target innocent English civilians for something that happened over 200 years ago. No disrespect to the Irish people, just the IRA.
One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter
HAHHAHAHA 200 Years ago? It is still going on today weather you realize it or not.
Lets bomb Italy for the Roman Empire while we are at it.
If they intentionally target noncombatants for the purpose of terrorizing their enemies population into capitulation, they're terrorists. If they attack soldiers and legitimate military targets in an attempt to force the other side to capitulate, they're freedom fighters.
As a bonus: if they intend to set up a free democractic government after they win, freedom fighters. If they intend to set up a dictatorship with themselves on top, terrorists.
Although, often it depends on who's doing the referencing.
