Who decides which is which?
And before you say "the magnitude, or how many people were killed", keep in mind that they had it on every news station, calling it a "terrorist attack" when only 7 people were killed.
Was the Columbine rampage a terrorist attack? Why not? Maybe it's because at the time, the media wasn't pushing BS propaganda to push the "war on terror" and thus derive us of more of our rights.
wasnt it an indian warship that just had the incident with the pirates onff the east coast of africa?
yep!
I did see a couple of the Indian Police carrying FAL rifles.

That likely has nothing to do with this. The pirates were Somali and probably couldn't find India on a map if you gave them directions.
My guess is these folks are some sort of Kashmiri separatists.
They were on vacation but are home now.
Thank God. I'm glad to hear they're home safe and sound.
Hunter Mag,
Thank God. I'm glad to hear they're home safe and sound.
Thanks ElMuerto! I can't begin to tell you how relieved I am. But you can imagine.
I told her she might want to cancel that part of the world from future vactions. She travels overseas quite often.
I have been watching this since last night.

I travel to that part of the world in my work, FALs and HK G3s are still used often in India, Pakistan, and elsewhere.
Bush's fault. Stuff like this won't happen with Obama at the helm.
I'd hope not.

Yep, Obama will sit them down and give them a good tongue lashing.
What's the difference between a "terror attack" and a "murder rampage"??

I think it's the subjective intent and associations of the perpetrators. Columbine, while certainly horrific, was the act of just two psychotic individuals with a diseased worldview.
Terrorists act at the behest of worldwide organizations and seek to change the policy of governments or nations. They seek violent overthrow of the existing order; they have long term aspirations, that however delusional, are somewhat internally consistent and rational to them.
Body count can also be a factor in the same sense. In other words, the Columbine killers' capacity for violence was limited by the fact that there was only two of them. 9/11 was made possible by the fact there were 20, financed and supported by a worldwide network of like-minded individuals with common goals and methodologies.
But, in the end, purpose is the key element. The first attack on the towers in 1993 led to all of six deaths, but it's a stupid man indeed that doesn't think this was a terroristic event.

Columbine was not an organized group of radicals, Just a bunch crack smokin punks. The Deccan Mujahideen is an alleged semi organized Islamic terrorist group within India with ties to Pakistan.
Ever since the partition of the sub-continent in 1947, when Britain dismantled its Indian empire, India and Pakistan have been arch rivals.
Mark my words, it will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy . The world is watching. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said. Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.
I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate . And he's gonna need help. And the kind of help he's gonna need is, he's gonna need you - not financially to help him - we're gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right.

Exactly. Scale, organization, goals, methods, etc. mark the difference between horrible crimes and terroristic acts of war.
Or, in Ruger's world, whenever the Illuminati decides something is terrorist, then it's a ploy to subdue us and grind us into the dust.

Thats your world as well, you're just too blind to see it.

Yeah, all I need to do is become a Ron Paul acolyte and worship at the altar of insanity, and I'll be right there with ya.
