He is a terrorist if he did the bombings. Terrorist or lone nut? The media is wary of calling those who kill indescrimately terrorists. Even Ted Kazenski didn't get the moniker.

Someone who merely goes out on a "thrill kill" spree and takes out random people for fun is not a terrorist. But someone who chooses targets for political reasons and then employs the illegal use of force (or threat of force) is.
