Yes. When that's the only option left. Many movements around the world have employed what we now refer to as terrorism to affect change. Including ones that are currently not considered terrorist.

That's abuse of the term. If you're attacking a military, you're not a terrorist. Even if your skin is brown.

If you're attacking women and children intentionally, you're a terrorist. Even if you're wearing a State-issued military uniform.

Terrorism is by definition political. Mass school shootings are rarely political, for example. They are very very scary, but they are not terrorism. When the PLQ killed 8 people, that was terrorism.

Mass shooting in a school is definitely terrorism wtf
