Once you begin to consider a terrorist’s motives, you become a Terrorist Sympathizer.

Once you begin to sympathize with a terrorist, you become an Advocate of Terrorism.

Sorry, I disagree. Once you empathize with a terrorist's motives, or condone his/her actions you become a Terrorist Sympathizer.

Identifying & considering motives of criminals, suspects & murderers have been a long established core practice for law enforcement agencies - the Police force, and those who work with them, such as a psychologists, included.
