Terrorism Forum 250 words or more

View the video and read the articles on the Earth liberation Front and the Boston Bombing trial verdicts.  These show two examples of activity labeled as “terrorism.” Consider the complex idea of “terrorism” (see the optional links below, if needed). How do the two examples in the articles and video compare? Should both activities be labeled with the same term? Using Rachels’ text and the additional material assigned this week, how would you respond if you were a member of the jury deciding each case?
