    “Terrorism” is being used as a highly relative term. Just like international laws are also being viewed as highly relative.

      Which is why international law has never recognized terrorism as a category. Any and all acts of armed violence from one country to another is a military action and constitutes an attack in the frame of an armed conflict. Terrorism is a political, not a legal, concept.
