Terrorism Targets Civilians or the State?

Terrorism is such a big issue that I am always surprised the definition of "terrorism" is not more rigorously examined, especially in the media, including from sources such as Time magazine and Fox News' "Fox and Friends," neither of which do a very good job on this issue, as I show in this video.

The Time magazine cover and article I show in this video are available online at http://tinyurl.com/TimeTerror

The two short clips I use from Fox News in this video come from a segment broadcast on "Fox and Friends" on November 16, 2009, of an interview with former Bush Attorney General Michael Mukasey discussing the attack on Fort Hood involving Major Nidal Malik Hasan that is currently available in full online at http://www.foxnews.com/search-results/m/27432589/terror-attack.htm

I also fairly use an image of a 1960 lunch counter sit-in taken in Greensboro, North Carolina, taken by UPI that is available from the Library of Congress online at http://www.loc.gov/exhibits/odyssey/archive/09/0909001r.jpg

The "International Convention for the Suppression of the Financing of Terrorism" excerpt I show in my video is available online at http://www.un.org/law/cod/finterr.htm

And, finally, as always, you can find DOZENS and DOZENS more examples of Fox News bias on my Fox News bias playlist on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A3BD2524FE99BD4D

The war on terror is a big joke!! Its one of those wars that will last forever and at the same time make trillions of dollars for the military industrial complex..

RE: Fort Hood, granted there is little info at present but we should be alert to the possibility that it was a 'false flag' scenario (it wouldn't be the first time).

Also, the 2x response vids by Prononum provide relevant context.

I would actually make the comment that the subversion of the definition of terrorism by the state would qualify itself as terrorism. That is they can use these broad categories to intimidate and coerce populations and engage in a terrorism of their own.

@ChristJesusReigns Do you believe in time travelers? Extraterrestrials? Immortals? Demons? Angels? Shape shifters?

Which am I ? O_o

Am I mentioned in your holy book?? p__q

Would your "God" order my death?

If it were real, would I be a threat to your God?

Or could it be one of my CREATions?? O_o

There is much you do not know about the universe. Yet you act like YOU are God and have special knowledge. LOL

@Faithmaster You better change the college then, because this one you are attending gives you wrong or biased information. I also won't debate with you. What you know I already forgot. Besides you are brainwashed beyond any help.

WTF...Arrogant teenager who seen shit in his life.

[Faithmaster]

@WatchdogofAllah1 Ps, I won't be bothering to read you comments again so don't bother reposting. I respect your list of achievements, if true, but I don't want to listen to an obviously closed minded individual such as yourself that is so obviously content with what he thinks and believes nor do I want to have a debate with you. I have a college that gives me much better information and perspective then you could ever give me.

[Faithmaster]

@WatchdogofAllah1 You mistaken being elderly and experienced as being knowing and wise. You deviate off the subject to attack me and my credibility and worth. I have also read the Q'ur'an as well as every other middle eastern religion and it did not nearly take me so long to understand, nor did I have to read it in 3 languages.

So, to reiterate what was relevant- read what applies to this conversation and stop trying to prove yourself to me.

When you pass hopefully you'll take ignorance with.

@Faithmaster There are no holes there, sonny boy, at your age I had already 1 degree under my belt with total of 5 now...I am already a grandfather so you at 19 could be my grandson.

Research? I have spent 11 years working in various Muslim countries, have read the un-holy Qur'an in 3 different languages (took me 5 years of my time to read and comprehend all this nonsense) plus I have degrees in Political Science, History, Psychology (the others do not apply here)

Go back to school, sonny boy

[Faithmaster]

@WatchdogofAllah1 There are some holes in your logic.

First off, there is a difference of a civilian and military personal regardless of states and they were civilians at one time. When they do something unlawful we have military police that take charge of investigation, detaining, etc. The US government acknowledges this.

Second, many terrorist cells belong to a state and a not so accurate but easy to understand quote one mans patriot is another terrorist. Next time, do research.
