Dear All, Berbicara tentang terorisme, belum ada definisi yang jelas akan hal tersebut, karena seingat saya pada saat pembahasa mengenai definisi terorisme, Amerika Serikat menggunakan hak veto-nya. Mungkin karena Amerika Serikat (dan juga sekutunya) takut dituduh sebagai teroris juga.
Berikut adalah proposed definitions of terrorism ( taken from http://www.unodc.org/unodc/terrorism_definitions.html ) Proposed Definitions of Terrorism 1. League of Nations Convention (1937): "All criminal acts directed against a State and intended or calculated to create a state of terror in the minds of particular persons or a group of persons or the general public". 2. UN Resolution language (1999): "1. Strongly condemns all acts, methods and practices of terrorism as criminal and unjustifiable, wherever and by whomsoever committed; 2. Reiterates that criminal acts intended or calculated to provoke a state of terror in the general public, a group of persons or particular persons for political purposes are in any circumstance unjustifiable, whatever the considerations of a political, philosophical, ideological, racial, ethnic, religious or other nature that may be invoked to justify them". (GA Res. 51/210 Measures to eliminate international terrorism) 3. Short legal definition proposed by A. P. Schmid to United Nations Crime Branch (1992): Act of Terrorism = Peacetime Equivalent of War Crime 4. Academic Consensus Definition: "Terrorism is an anxiety-inspiring method of repeated violent action, employed by (semi-) clandestine individual, group or state actors, for idiosyncratic, criminal or political reasons, whereby - in contrast to assassination - the direct targets of violence are not the main targets. The immediate human victims of violence are generally chosen randomly (targets of opportunity) or selectively (representative or symbolic targets) from a target population, and serve as message generators. Threat- and violence-based communication processes between terrorist (organization), (imperilled) victims, and main targets are used to manipulate the main target (audience(s)), turning it into a target of terror, a target of demands, or a target of attention, depending on whether intimidation, coercion, or propaganda is primarily sought" (Schmid, 1988).

Syamsul Maarif Dua tersangka teroris di bawah umur, yaitu Nur Fauzan, 19, dan Isa Ansori, 16, Jumat sore mungkin akan dilepas dari tahanan. Berita ini menjadi makanan hangat media massa minggu-minggu ini. Mereka adalah teroris kecil yang terkecoh doktrin yang dianggap baik, tapi merugikan banyak pihak dengan dalih agama dan kuasa Tuhan untuk menghukum setiap yang mereka anggap salah dan tidak sesuai dengan ajaran mereka.
