Question of the day: what is a terrorist

Fox News asks:


The dictionary says:

ter·ror·ism :
/ˈtɛrəˌrɪzəm/ Show
Spelled
[ter-uh-riz-uhm] Show IPA
–noun
1. the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, esp. for political purposes.
2. the state of fear and submission produced by terrorism or terrorization.
3. a terroristic method of governing or of resisting a government.

So the answer is, no, Fox News. Those guys aren't terrorists.
