eighth post: perspective and terrorism

"Terrorism as defined by official U.S. documents is the calculated use of violence or threat of violence to attain goals that are political, religious, or ideological instate. " Funny how they conveniently left out "economical".

The (mis)calculated use of force supported and sustained by the american government and american troops does exactly that.
Even if (in my opinion, at best very naively) looked at as "exporting democracy" (or "imposing democracy, which is just a tad ironic), American war efforts are still use of violence to obtain ideological, political and religious goals and, by their own definition, terrorism.
The fact that they think they are right doesn't make it any less ideological, political or religious.

The fact that, when looked at with just some attention and information, all these goals are largely economical, makes American Terrorism and even more inhumane type of terrorism, that sacrifices life for interest rather than belief. Not that sacrifice for belief is better. But it's at least the expression of a warped mind, rather than warped and twisted.
