2. Shortly after 911, one of the major news internet sites

(can't remember which one now) had an interactive slide show thingy about different 'events' that had occurred through history - and the subsequent 'political result' of those events. It asked you, as I recall, to 'vote' if you thought that it was a 'terrorist action' (and it was using the dictionary definition of 'terrorist'). After you 'voted', it would give you this little blurb about whether that action was really, by definition, a real terrorist act and then why or why not.

It was really quite good/thought provoking, but I suppose that has 'gone down the memory hole' now (don't want the peoples doin' too much of that thar thinkin stuff').

P.S. Btw, if anyone knows what I'm referring to or where it can be found, it would be interesting to see it again.
