What Is Terrorism?

Originally part of a longer letter, but the text is modified.
As for the IRA, I am entirely with them. Despite the hypocrisy of Frederic Forsyth, the self-constituted defender of Biafran rights against English perfidy, and the WASPs, (White, Anglo-Saxon Protestants), morality and justice is on the side of Eire.
In a part of Eire, Protestants from the Scotch Lallands and from England have been settled, and constitute a colony. When Eire, after resisting England's imperialism and colonialism, was granted the right to self-determination, it chose independence. However, England has illegally retained a part of Eire, mainly the larger part of the province of Ulster, where the Irish are discriminated, terrorized and dehumanised for their Catholic heritage. The resistance of the Irish, whether of the IRA, or of the RIRA is moral and just. It is as moral and just as that of the Timorese. And England's right in this territory is just as moral and just as Indonesia's right in Timor Lorosae, or the Indian Union's right in my own homeland, Portuguese India.
I call Forsyth a hypocrite because, while he supports the cause of the Biafrans, which is just, he opposes the equally just cause of the Irish. That is because of his loyalty to his tribe and clan, the WASPs. His loyalty distorts his sense of justice.
As for terrorism: what do one mean by that? One man's terrorism is another man's lawful warfare. The Americans and their lackeys, the so-called Free World, has had no compunctions whatsoever, in aiding and abetting the Serb Muslim traitors in their treaonable enterprise of carving out a Muslim homeland for themselves, and in shamelessly perpetrating the most unspeakable acts of terrorism upon the Serb Orthodox resistance to this treason by the governments of Serbia, Montenegro, Yugoslavia and by the Serb Orthodox general populace. It has no compunction in attacking schools, hospitals, radio and television stations, attacking purely civilian targets to terrorize the Serb Orthodox so that they would desist from their natural and just resistance to Muslim treason. (See Millatism.)
The English committed Genocide in Scotland: The Catholic Highlanders, for resisting them, were exterminated and the remainder rounded up and shipped out to Australia, Canada and New England: Pacification. Today, in all Europe, it is only Scotland whose population is lower than its population five hundred years ago.
The English committed Genocide in Eire, Canada, the USA, Australia and New Zealand. Nor is this exhaustive. Remember that with a few exceptions, the Spanish or Portuguese did not set out to exterminate the aborigine populations of the New World, but Christianized and intermarried with them. What the English did was terrorism. America continues from where England, exhausted at the end of World War II, left off.
Following in the footsteps of its harlot mother, harlot America, the New Babylon, fashioned on the pattern of pagan Rome, complete with Capitols and Senators, set out to bait, to divide and to conquer, steal and colonize the Catholic lands of New Spain and New Granada, balkanising them into a hundred different independent states - Banana Republics, always squabbling among themselves, while the oversmart cat lords over them.
As for targetting civilians, why, when the English and the Americans can do it, cannot those who resist them do it? Why is it terrorism if the IRA or the RIRA do it, but not if the English or the American goverments do it? Are the English and the Americans gods, descended from heaven, deigning to dwell amidst us?
One cannot make an omelette without breaking eggs. And, in my understanding, there is the same moral justification for the Biblical injunction to entirely exterminate the homosexual Canaanites, for the Crusades against Islam and against the heretics, the Inquisitions and other Christian efforts to destroy the Cathari, Albigensians, Waldensians, Protestants, etc., for the US bombing of Japan (though not for the selection of Nagasaki), for the Spanish and Portuguese "ethnic cleansing of Iberia by the expulsion of the Moors and the Jews, and likewise for that of the Serb Orthodox against the Serb Muslims - the mythical nation of the Bosniacs, etc. I cannot accept the rapes of Muslim Serb women, but on the balance, I accept the inevitability of drastic measures against Muslim treason - Millatism. This is Social Chemotherapy.
I specifically support the freedom struggles of the Irish, the Basque, the Corsicans and Occitans, the Quebecois, the Kurds and Armenians, the Sudanese against the Arabs, the Nagas and the Bru-Chin, Karen, Kayenni, Shans, and Hmong, the Puerto Ricans, the Tibetans, the West Papuans, the Moluccans, Tamil Eelam, the Chakmas, etc. I support the cause of the aborigine nations of the New World in their struggle for recognition of their rights. I reject the causes of the "Palestinians," Arakanese, Achinese, Kashmiri, Chechens, as also the Japanese claim that Russia should return to it the islands of Kunashiro, etc. Re. Taiwan: I do not accept China's pretensions, but I also recognize that the Taiwanese are not the indigenous people, but Chinese colonists.
