Flying a plane into a building is terrorism but
crashing an automobile into an airport and setting
it on fire isn't? - Jai Maharaj


Well the people who flew the plane into a building did it for a terrorist
organization, making them, ahem, "Terrorists" and there act therefore
"Terrorism".
The man driving his car into a building as doing it as a "Suicide" making
him "Suicidal" not a terrorist. His goal was not to instill terror in the
minds of the peaceful, but to end his own life. Something you should really
check into. - "Jerry Brewster"


As far as your suicide as a condition for a crime to be called
a terrorist act goes, the 9-11 terrorists also intended to commit
suicide -- and succeeded. And as far as your condition of belonging
to an organization is concerned, it simply isn't valid because
individuals acting alone are often charged with terroristic threatening
and terrorist crimes.
