This is getting incredibly boring now. Bin Laden IS a terrorist because he is part of a terrorist organization.
If you want to say Bin Laden is not a terrorist because he did not fly the plane or detonate the bomb, then you must say that George Bush has never committed an act of aggression against Iraq. By your inane logic, only Private Walter Jones and PFC John Garcia, et. al. may be held accountable for the war. Silly, isn't it?
There really are no "terrorists", just guerilla fighters. Such fighters usually believe in their cause and can justify (in their own heads) their actions. I doubt that they have the simple and basic objective of causing fear. They have an enemy and they want to kill to make their point. But even if they kill 100,000 of their enemy, nothing changes. They have only brought misery into the lives of many good people whom they never met. How does that make the world a better place? Also, anybody who kills in god's name, or kills for religious purposes is an asshole. Think about that - killing for god - what kind of asshole concept is that?
@Miss Dubai - This Jihad is an interesting subject. I have understood this to be "Holy War", but I'm not sure if that is entirely correct. To me that means something along the lines of two or more religious groups at war against each other, or launching an offensive to attack those who are trying to exterminate people of a particular faith. Perhaps the Palestinian struggle in Israel qualifies under my supposed definition. But certainly Jihad would not have anything to do with randomly selecting an Embassy in Kenya to bomb, buildings in the USA to fly planes into, trains in Spain to bomb, and clubs in Bali to bomb. That is certainly not "Jihad" and if the perpetrators of these above-mentioned acts then say we did this killing in the name of God and God is great, then these assholes have hijacked, stolen your word "jihad" and used it for their own selfish purposes. And that has nothing to do with any God.
