The difference between domestic terrorism and international terrorism is academic.

The media has gone to great lengths to advertise the fact that the New York knifeman who stabbed 5 Jewish citizens was a domestic terrorist. This begs the questions, is a domestic terrorist less harmful that an international one, and would you prefer to be killed by a domestic terrorist with whom you may have played golf or Abdul the Bull-Bull the international terrorist.

If you're going to acknowledge the similarities between domestic and international terrorists then perhaps you should also acknowledge the similarities between terrorist groups and state terrorist groups like Israel and the United States.

Acts of terrorism is loosely defined as violence against people solely because of their race or religious ethnicity'

I am unaware of any such violence carried out by the nations you have cited.

Both the United States and Israel have many enemies and they are dealt in a way which conforms to the Geneva Convention and compatible with the international protocol on warfare.

You are debating a hateful Leftist fool! Just saying...

I equate that with debating an eight year old.

I realize that this site has been reduced to a few Left wing fools, so we have a couple choices. Talk to fools, or leave and let this site die.

I know enough not to waste too much time bantering words with fools. I believe you are smart enough to understand. Thanks for your intelligent posts.
