*** "Terrorism"abd "terrorist" is a grossly misused term. Mahatma Gandhi too was a terrorist. So was Menachem Begin. Mao Tse Tung no less. George Washingtom too was one. To the Confederates Abe Lincon must have been one . Nelson Mandela was one too, to the white supremacist South Africans. Unless it is DEFINED,with reference to context, it is a catchall term that carries little meaning. *** I agree that a ploitical platform has to be created. But what IF such a platform could not be created because it is declared illegal by the powers that be, rendering all such attempts at a creating a political platform anti-national at best and "terroristic" at worst?

What should its ramifications be? Should the powers that be forfeit its rights to rule? If not what should the penalty be? cm At 10:02 PM -0400 9/21/02, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >In a message dated 9/20/02 10:50:36 PM Central Daylight Time, >[EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > > > > ><<*** They are, but so?
