This imprecision has been abetted partly by the modern media, whose efforts to communicate an often complex and convoluted message in the briefest amount of airtime or print space possible have led to the promiscuous labeling of a range of violent acts as “terrorism.” Pick up a newspaper or turn on the television and even within the same broadcast or on the same page one can find such disparate acts as the bombing of a building, the assassination of a head of state, the massacre of civilians by a military unit.
