But again, this further removes us from having ANY definition to this stuff at all..I mean we can look up in the dictionary what the word terror means, and use it in every one of those instances that seem, at surface level, to fit...but I think it loses all meaning then

on your first point, well, I would say it is more fair to call 'terroristic' type things done by legitimate armies in legitimate warfare "war crimes", a strictly defined term with specific meanings...mostly, the things we call terror nowadays come from illegitimate groups
