There have been a few terrorist incidents perpetrated by military and paramilitary personnel operating directly for states; Lockerbie springs to mind, as do a couple of cases involving the DPRK.

The terrorists targeted by Israel are not operating for a state.

Doesn't take much thread following to figure out you were off-base with that definitive, and incorrect, statement. Actually, that determination requires that you ignore the thread. No, having read the thread it appears that you were a bit quick to make a definitive statement; had you put a "sometimes" in front of your declaration, it would have been A-OK. Since you have not objected to the idea that sometimes terrorists are *not* civilians, we'll chalk it up to your poor choice in wording. Everyone who posts is sometimes guilty of being a bit less than clear with their wording at one time or another, and most of us admit it when it happens--why you can't seem to do so is a question for which I really don't care to know the answer. Adios. Brooks

Does the absence of active disagreement from others imply their agreement? Brooks

No offense but there are a lot of Jewish
people in this country who can't believe how violent the Israelis are. Some of their own pilots quit flying because they were asked to bomb civilians. Not quite accurate. Several IAF reserve pilots refused to fly strike missions into the West Bank and Gaza Strip because they felt collateral damage issues were not being properly addressed.
