They may be, but it may not be. Just calling it terrorism doesn't make it so.
Like the Lee Rigby murder? But I'm not interested in semantic differences between terrorism & hate crime. 1/2

Lee Rigby wasn't terrorism. And I am. It's not just a semantic difference, it's a political one.

Yes but on the level of words. I don't want to discuss the meanings of words - 'semantics.' I'm addressing a false claim of imbalance.

But that issue of imbalance is bound up with the meaning of the words. Re no, still not clear what your were negating.

No, it wasn't. We've gone way off the point so I'll leave it here. They don't care (if they get ppl other than that target) No (they don't)
