Still depends on your viewpoint and/or blinkers

One regular poster here tried to argue the same definition as you, but put the IRA in the non-terrorist camp because he believed they targeted the British Army.
Completely ignoring, say, letting off a huge bomb in London's financial district.

Question for ya..........

Is shooting an Israeli conscript at a range of 200 yards an act of terror or an act of war?
Is there any difference, really?

Cheers,
Tony
P.S. I didn't miss your point, was just reversing Matt's situation.

P.P.S Granny Weatherwax was not right - there are always shades of grey........ ;-)
