Frank, you hit the nail right on the head when you mentioned definitions of terrorism. Ask a hundred people and you would likely get a hundred different answers. Personally, I think the allied military forces (and that includes my country's armed forces) are as far from the filthy terrorist scum as can be, but that's by my definitions. As Bayer said, it all comes down to which side of the fence you are looking from. Deliberate cowardly attacks on innocent unarmed civilians? Terrorism without doubt. Killing those who seek to harm those very civilians? Justified use of force. Whether I'm right or not is for history to judge.
