[QUOTE="MadDogs, post: 2759358, member: 11175"] A fault with the Oxford definition is that it defines terrorism by political means. Subsequently it fails to define terror acts as terrorism if they are motivated by race or religion. This is one of the excuses many make for not labeling Islamic terrorism as terrorism because they say there is no political aspect which is wrong because it misses the point that race and religion can be critical drivers to terror acts (and that Islam is a socio-political-economic religious based operating system). A shortened version of the FBIs definition of terrorism would be any act designed to intimidate or coerce by violence or the threat of violence.
