What is the difference between slaughtering thousands of innocent people for a political reason and slaughtering thousands of innocent people for a political reason? Is there some inherent quality in Muslims that make what they do terrorism, but every other atrocity simply a crime?
What is the difference between what Saddam Hussein did (brutalize and slaughter innocent Kurds) and what Turkey did (brutalize and slaughter innocent Kurds) except that one was aimed at ethnic cleansing, the other at repression? Is "terrorism" simply a quality added to someone's atrocities once they become enemies of the US?
