King David Hotel Bombing - Terrorist Attack or Not?

[dead0man]

On one hand:
it was a military target
they called ahead

On the other hand:
non-govt actors using violence against civilians (even if not your intention) to try to make a political change is terrorism to a T



It wasn't as horrible as shooting up a daycare or walking on to a city bus and blowing it up, but it's terrorism.  You'd have to really bend the definition of the word to make it not.
