    I wonder when will be the first nuclear terrorists attack (at sometime it must happen right?)
    How do you define terrorism?
    Would "trying to kill as many innocent civilians as possible in order to win a political conflict with a nation" be a good definition?

    If yes, then it has already happened. Twice.

    How much nuclear power though? And where (my memory fails me in this case)? Besides, what really is to fear from terrorist is probably not the nuclear menace, but the biological one. What we made is everyones, spis are everywhere

    I do not care about terrorism. It's a shame to break your neck on the stairs, but there are many more real dangers. A week ago I met a moron with a knife. If I were slaughtered, this would be said on TV? No, this is a drop in the sea.

    You are great too, boris.

    History is written by the winners. If these now-called "terrorists" were able to overthrow the ruling government and instill their dogma on the masses, they will be viewed as liberators and their "terrorism" was a neccessary evil in the purging and redemption of the country.

    But to the rational mind, this is still an atrocity that should never occur. Sadly, reality never follows rationality.

    Sadly, it's not ASCII. It had to use several Unicode characters to get the right shape.

    Sadface, I'm pretty sure the answer is yes, and the underscore too (that's the best part ).

    Not really, no. Terrorism doesn't require civilians to be killed at all to be effective; in many cases, the threat of violence alone is sufficient to achieve the terrorists' goals. Terrorism also doesn't, strictly speaking need to be against a nation; it could be against, for example, between religious groups within the same country.

    In a more general sense, the jury is out on whether states are even capable of performing terrorist actions--many argue that the behaviour of states is already governed by international laws, and that attributing the idea of terrorism to them is redundant. There isn't really any consensus on this issue.
