This idea that terrrorism has no definition is really odious. If the Arab nations say this why dont they make their own?

If true, this is my definition, use at will: Terrorism is the method of using violence such as kidnapping, murder and violent assualts, against (generally random, non-combatant) individuals in a group or country, in order to threaten all members of that group or country.

Terrorism is usually in the service of a political or ideological cause, or to otherwise gain advantage (politicial, financial, etc.). The philosophy of terrorism is the philosophy of power through violence, intimidation and fear-mongering towards non-combatants. Terrorism is an unjust use of force against others and is never justified for any cause.
