Nah, ours weren't "terrorists", they were "patriotic freedom fighters". Big difference. One has 10 letters and no spaces and one has 24 letters and two spaces. See?

Maybe, but he directed his little friends at us (not to mention supporting the likes of the IRA and ETA), and everybody rejoiced when a revolt that had a real chance of getting him out arose, and rushed to aid it.
We could not have him assassinated, but we still did what we could to hasten his downfall... except maybe Italy as they rather got benefits from dealing wit him.

You're kidding right? Most every government in history sponsors terrorists of one sort and scale or another. Exempli gratia - The US sponsored Saddam Hussein and the "resistance fighters" in the Soviet Afghan war (who they later deposed and are still fighting - we know them as the Taliban).

Because his allegedly sponsored terrorists are somehow more offensive to you than those of occidental governments it amounts to just cause for you?

+1. Somehow, when an American controlled group blows things up, it is never "terrorism". And when America kills anyone in a foreign country, it is always an act of defense.

Not so. It has always been relative. One man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter. Ever was it so.

But mostly you have to choose a side.

Yeah, I always thought ball games would be more fun if the ball were full of nitrogycerin and the goal was to explode members of the other team.

Or just fun. Depended a lot on my mood.
