> what do terrorist organizations exist to do? To terrorize.
Seriously?
One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter. There is always an agenda, and terrorism is merely a means to an end that frustrated and (usually) deeply disturbed human beings turn to when they see no other viable course of action.
Somebody should help terrorists choose names for their organizations, then:
- PLO = Palestine Liberation Front
- ETA = Basque Homeland and Freedom
- IRA = Irish Republican Army
etc. I would call someone whose goal is killing a soldier or a murderer. IMO, the reason terrorists kill civilians is the same as why, in a dispute between two children of largely different strength, the one who is verbally weakest will start fighting, and the one who is physically weakest then will start fighting dirty (biting, nail scratching, hair pulling, etc)
