"...Except When We Do It."

It is completely impossible to precisely define the word “terrorism” in a way that doesn’t include what every “government” on the planet does … unless you include in the definition something that basically amounts to, “but it doesn’t count as terrorism when government does it.” For example, Section 2656f of Title 22 of the United States Code defines “terrorism” to mean “premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets by subnational groups or clandestine agents.” Did you notice the key word? Here it is: “subnational.”

Damn near everything “government” does is “politically motivated violence,” including violence “against noncombatant targets.” Tax laws? Drug laws? Gun laws? In fact, pretty much all man-made “laws” are that. That’s why the political parasites have to toss in the word “subnational,” in order to exclude themselves. They are basically saying, “Hey, when we wear the label ‘government,’ and then violently control the peasants for political ends, that doesn’t count, because we’re doing it on the national level! So it’s okay!”

Interestingly, this definition found in federal law basically makes all state and local “governments” guilty of terrorism. (They are, after all, “subnational” groups.) The way the parasites usually get around this is to use words like “lawful” somewhere in the definition. Of course, when they say “lawful,” that just means, “we decided it was okay,” and when they say “contrary to the laws” of the country or state, that just means “we didn’t say it was okay."

For example, 28 CFR § 0.85 defines "terrorism" to mean “the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.” Once again, if not for that word “unlawful” in there, that would be a perfect description of damn near everything that every “government” does. Does anyone want to pretend, for example, that the IRS does not use “force and violence” in order to “intimidate” the civilian population into compliance with the federal extortion racket?

(Ironically, those who capitulate to the IRS’ terroristic demands, even just out of self-preservation, are then funding a terrorist organization... which is a crime (18 USC § 2339A). Oh, I forgot. It’s not “terrorism” when the gang calls itself “government,” and calls its victim base a "nation.")

But wait. So far I’ve only talked about how the U.S. “government” is the biggest domestic terrorist organization around. But even that is dwarfed by the evil that that gang perpetrates overseas, via international terrorism. After all, so far they don’t openly murder tens of thousands of civilians here in the U.S. They save that for other countries. And in that case, even their BS definitions don’t save them from obviously fitting within any sane definition of “terrorism,” because what U.S. troops do in other countries is in violation of the “laws” of those countries, and would be in violation of U.S. “law” if done here. That makes the U.S. military, without a doubt, the biggest and most deadly international terrorism organization in the world.

Remember all this the next time you hear some bloated political windbag telling you how you should be scared of terrorism. “They hate us for our freedoms!” Oddly, that is completely true, but only true about the terrorists headquartered in DC. Do you see any other gang trying so hard to deprive you of freedom? I don’t. The only terrorist organization Americans really need to fear is the one whose gang symbol is the American flag.
