The definition of terrorism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorism
Terrorism is, in the broadest sense, the use of intentionally indiscriminate violence as a means to create terror among masses of people; or fear to achieve a financial, political, religious or ideological aim. It is used in this regard primarily to refer to violence against peacetime targets or in war against non-combatants

I'm sorry Janne, but Israel is just as much a terrorist state as Saudi Arabia is as they both use their sovereign rights to cover up their atrocities

And certain gullible countries keep supporting them doing so and this must stop, immediately.

Should it be a difference between those who could be Israelis, and those who happen to be Hebrew, for next also Jews?

For one thing it could be the name which could be used, while the other that of syntax for that of possible spelling.

No it doesn't Lynn, but sadly it does magnify them, as history has shown so many times. :-(

And "The first victim of war is the truth" :(

Daesh takes credit on the double attack in Kabul in the morning, AFP said. Both Daesh and the Taliban Movement, which last week launched its annual war campaign, performs regular attacks in Kabul.
Authorities have warned of an increased risk of more attacks, both in Kabul and elsewhere, before the parliamentary elections scheduled for October.

https://apnews.com/d80de03712f3400ab31b5d28ef3ec3ab/Twin-bombings-in-Afghanistan-kill-25,-including-9-reporters
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Two Islamic State suicide bombers struck in Afghanistan’s capital on Monday, killing 25 people, including nine journalists who had rushed to the scene of the first attack, in the deadliest assault on reporters since the fall of the Taliban in 2001.

An Agence France-Presse photographer, a cameraman for the local Tolo TV station and several reporters for the Afghan branch of Radio Free Europe were among the fatalities, police said. At least 45 people were wounded in the attacks, according to Kabul police spokesman Hashmat Stanekzai, who said four police were among those killed.

The attack was the latest in a relentless string of large-scale bombings and assaults in the capital and elsewhere in Afghanistan this year.

A few hours later, in the southern Kandahar province, a suicide car bomb targeting a NATO convoy killed 11 children from a nearby religious school, police said. The children had gathered around the NATO convoy for fun when the bomber struck, said Abdul Rahim Ayubi, a lawmaker from Kandahar. Eight Romanian NATO soldiers were wounded.

A suspect killed by French authorities after knifing five people and ultimately killing one in central Paris has been claimed as a “soldier” of ISIS, the extremist group’s news agency said.

The Islamic State (ISIS) claimed responsibility for Saturday night’s knife attack, saying it was in response to ISIS' calls for supporters to target members of the U.S.-led military coalition squeezing the extremists out of Iraq and Syria, the Aamaq news agency said in a statement.

U.S. State Department warns Americans of terrorism threat at World Cup in Russia
https://www.unian.info/world/10154909-u-s-state-department-warns-americans-of-terrorism-threat-at-world-cup-in-russia.html
But this threat applies to all events and venues in the whole world.
Whatever. Ramadan is now over and Eid-al-fitr was yesterday so I guess Daesh and others are now back in business.

Considering how Putin treats Muslim citizens within the Russian Federation.
Daesh/ISIS and other Muslim terrorist movements, would probably wish to make Putin look bad.
What?
Do you know about the republic Chechnya's leader Ramzan Kadyrov for example?
Kadyrov reigns in Chechnya with support from Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Kadyrov wants to introduce Muslim laws that govern women's clothing in Chechnya and have officially expressed support for those groups of men who harass women who do not dress Muslim. The harassment consists, among other things, in spraying women with paintball on the open street.
That any many other things!
Putin approve!

I subscribe to the Online Edition of The New York Times after decades of having a real newspaper delivered to my doorstep every morning.
Unfortunately, unlike Real Paper News, where I would look at every page. I do miss many items online :(
But I who doesn't even subscribe to NYT can read articles published there.
It's a paywall though so I can read only 5 articles per month.
Like Washington Post and many other US news outlets.


btw. Iceland vs Argentina right now.
Only 14 minutes left 1-1:)

Thank you for all of the compliments on getting the World Cup to come to the U.S.A., Mexico and Canada. I worked hard on this, along with a Great Team of talented people. We never fail, and it will be a great World Cup! A special thanks to Bob Kraft for excellent advice.
