Your definition of terrorism - since there is no agreed definition of that term, I'm curious to know why you use the word "individual". Can it refer to 'anarchic political act' carried out by groups or organizations, rather than individuals? what about governments?

You always hear the term "terrorist organizations" - do you think this term should not be used since terrorism is the act of individuals? if some of these organizations are targeting innocent civilians, what would be your definition of these organizations?
By 'individual' I mean non-societal, 'non-mass'; terrorism has very little social sway, contrary to what the media wants us to feel (OMG Us vs. Them Hysteria). Terrorism has very little political sway because it has very little social sway. Terrorism is inherently an underground activity.

Sure, there are 'terrorist organizations', but their political activity is of an individualistic form. Terrorism, and acts of terrorism, will never overhaul an advanced capitalist country like America.
