I am curious, Mr. Donald, how exactly you define the word "terrorist". I request that your definition be generic; i.e. not a definition like "anyone who attacks the US".
I'd be willing to bet that you cannot provide a clear generic definition of "terrorist". Moreover, I can guarantee that you cannot provide a definition that isn't self-contradictory. -Adam On Tue, 19 Oct 2004 09:59:15 -0700, "James A.
