**So what paragraph:**
From reading this article I learned the difference between a revolutionary and a terrorist. Revolutionaries may cause lots of fear but the difference is that they dont try to instill fear in the civilians while a terrorists job is to instill fear incivilians and do the most damage as possible, and create a daythat will forever be in the heads of the civilians. I also learned that there are organizations that are pretty much responsible for creating awareness of this subject and that there are conventions that pretty much create regulations for these people. Force is justified when the people have equal force, whenever one person has more force than the other then it becomes unbalanced. A terrorist is someone who tries to instill fear in the non-combatants, terrorists try to create this bad thought in the heads of the civilians that will never leave. Terrorists are very different but at the same time very alike freedom fighters. Terrorist try to instill fear and in the civilians and thats it, freedom fighters are fighting for a right. The ones who decide who is a freedom fighter and who is a terrorist are people of supreme power, preferably the ones that will be most just.
