So, by definition does that not make the US Terrorist?
Yep, it does. They use violence and intimidation to further their policy and ideology.

All the time.

But, might makes right. No?

My definition of a terrorist.

Anyone, who regardless of cause or reason be it political, faith, economic, in defence of country, or beliefs, whatever.

Knowingly targets civilians.

Much simpler and far easier to identify wrong from right.

So let’s pretend that 20 years from now, the US thanks the natural global warming starts running out of fresh water. There already places....

And they decide it’s time to annex CDA to help us manage our resources.

Me?
I will kill medics with grenades, plant IEDs, and far more. If I have to burn some alive with Molotovs I’m ok with that (and more) too. Could care less what honourable US troops think. If they expect me to fight them in open combat, they are stupider than stats say they are.

If that makes me a terrorist in their eyes. I’m ok with that.

You shouldn't be surprised to learn,then,that there's already contingency plans to "annex" this country should there be a "clear and present danger" of Canada being taken over by a power hostile to the safety and national security of the United States.

On this we agree. If you follow that rational, then the United States were terrorists in Nam. My Lia..is all the proof you need. Just one of many transgressions in the history of conflict, by that bastion of freedom. Yes I know we ‘need ‘ them but that doesn’t mean we should overlook that ‘other’ point. They will do whatever they want , to get what they want. I think that the rest of the free world agree ,with 90% of what they do. But. Now the world is looking at them, and saying, ‘ you can’t even get your own poop together, so don’t tell us your version ,of how the world should be ‘. Do you think Putin had this in mind all along?

Putin is not stupid. Both Russian and Chinese intelligence,without doubt, could see this coming a mile away. That's likely why they appeared to be so friendly toward the Trump administration. Give the enemy enough rope to hang themselves. It's worked brilliantly.

Would not surprise me in the least Trimmer.
I was 12-15 when I realised one day, a super power would want our water. There are places all over the world where by law people cant shower every day. Can't water lawns. Places in Africa out of fresh water ( Johanesburg I think??)....We already send water to California ( I believe). Nesltles anyone?

And all of that was before Global Warming/Climate change was a thing

My definition of a terrorist is ANYONE (foreign or domestic, white, black, brown, purple or paisley) that uses systematic violence, intimidation or to enforce a political weapon or policy. I could care less of their personal circumstances leading up to their terrorist act - they should be dealt with swiftly and harshly IMHO.

This includes Muslim, Christian, Jewish extremists groups , ANTIFA, IRA, and white supremist organizations.

The IRA planted bomb's all over Britain and killed countless civilians .The British Government sent in covert SAS troops to kill IRA so called terrorists. This was a dirty little war between two countries. The Irish considered the Ulster Defense Force and SAS to be terrorists and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth considered the Irish Republican Army to be terrorists.

We now have the IRA in government and the Queen shaking hands with them.

So now that I have given you a tricky example I will ask you to decide who was a terrorist?

The bombings and sectarian violence in Belfast over 25 years made the assault on Washington yesterday to be child's play.
