but then, so did some of the graduates from Oxford, Yale, and Harvard. Should we condemn the institutions for the bad acts of some of their graduates or judge the individuals by their actions?

On topic of "freedom fighters" verses "terrorists", you can also look at the actions of the two groups. If someone makes it a habit of attacking innocent civilians, then they can be rightfully called terrorists. On the other hand, if they primarily attack government and military installations, they're more likely to be "freedom fighters."

Some people have used the example of George Washington and the Continental Army when they make the "one man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist" remark. Tell me, do you know of any examples where Washington or his troops deliberately attacked civilians? How about the French Resistance during WWII? They may've taken out the random collaborator from time to time but most of their targets were the Germans and the things that supported them, such as the railroads. Were they terrorists or freedom fighters?
