IRA Attacks In N.Ireland

occupation troops in foreign countries can also be off duty...

the point is there is a clear-cut definition of terrorism, and by using this word you instrumentalize it for your own political agenda if used inaccuartely. some groups instrumentalize the word genocide for their own agendas but what prevents us from calling every war in history as genocide? same goes for terrorism. terrorism can most certainly not applied for each and every case of murder/assassination. as i understand, from the point of view of the perpetrators, the guys in question were occupation troops. furthermore, from what i can see, in both instances the targets were carefully selected and not randomly targeted as would be the case with terrorism.

You deliberately ignored the rest of my post. Two pizza delivery guys were shot with the intention of murder. Over 60 shots were fired, including on those as they lay on the ground. I don't wish to jump on the 'terrorism' bandwagon, far from it, but I merely state that the behaviour of these people was that of a terrorist, what else is it - domestic feud?. Any political agenda I may have is irrelevant.

 

Haven't you heard of WWII all you ultranationalists surrender in the end.
