CHAPTER

Terrorism

I feel like terrorism is creeping back in as a word that we would use. It's an incredibly emotive word which brings with it a real emotional and a real kind of moral judgment. Freedom fighters are good guys and terrorists are bad guys, but they're probably doing the same thing. I had relatives who were on the ANC during apartheid and they were classified as terrorists. We talk about them much more as being freedom fighters. But the tactics are exactly the same as when you look at kind of other groups that we might feel more comfortable labeling terrorists.
