"terrorism"
When people don't want to be slaughtered and have their resources stolen by imperial invaders it is "terrorism". When the same invaders are doing their invasions, mass murder civilians, threaten total annihilation and the like, it is "security" or "bringing democracy"...
It can be a just cause and terrorism at the same time.
For example, Nelson Mandela and others used textbook terroristic tactics to defeat the SA Apartheid regime, making them terrorists.
Whether or not the objectively just ends justify the means in the cases of South Africa, Palestine, and other oppressed is separate from whether or not the means qualify as terrorism.
For the record, I don't personally believe that terrorism is justified when there's any other way to fight back against your oppression, but am with you in not condemning the oppressed when there isn't.
Also, the military actions of Israel and the US in the Middle East are themselves textbook cases of state terrorism, which this will ALSO be an increase of.
I mean they did hijack planes and flew them into office buildings, killing a ton of civilians. It's not a reach to call that terrorism lol
Who is "they"? the 9/11 attack was committed by mostly Saudi nationals under leadership of the (former) CIA assets Osama bin Laden (also Saudi).
You know which country the US didn't attack in its "war on terror"? Saudi Arabia.
Instead the US attacked / attacked in: Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Libya

Uhhh, ever heard of Al-Qaeda??
Equating Iran and Al-Qaeda and more generally categorizing all "brown people" as more or less the same is like saying Guatemala is "they" with the US because they are on the same continent.
I wasn't equating anyone though, just saying the people who did 9/11 were absolutely terrorists
