Definition of Terrorism
I went to Wikipedia to understand the definition of “terrorism”. How is what organized efforts by groups financed and supported by George Soros, Bill Gates and other progressive, leftist, socialist groups including, BLM, ANTIFA, and the Democratic Party not fall into being “terrorist” organizations? They should be treated legally as any other terrorist organization that is fomenting, violence and resurrection.
Definition of terrorism
There is no universal agreement on the definition of terrorism.[1][2] Various legal systems and government agencies use different definitions of terrorism. Moreover, governments have been reluctant to formulate an agreed-upon and legally binding definition. Difficulties arise from the fact that the term has become politically and emotionally charged.[3] Since 1994, the United Nations General Assembly has condemned terrorist acts using the following political description of terrorism:
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 any other nature that may be invoked to justify them.[4]
In the United States of America, terrorism is defined in Title 22 Chapter 38 U.S. Code § 2656f as “premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets by subnational groups or clandestine agents”.[5]
In general, terrorism is classified[by whom?] as:
- The use of violence or of the threat of violence in the pursuit of political, religious, ideological or social objectives
- Acts committed by non-state actors (or by undercover personnel serving on the behalf of their respective governments)
- Acts reaching more than the immediate target victims and also directed at targets consisting of a larger spectrum of society
- Both mala prohibita (i.e., crime that is made illegal by legislation) and mala in se (i.e., crime that is inherently immoral or wrong
Yep…lock them up
Yes agree…they can be arrested under the terrorism laws.
So why is this not happening?
