Who's your fav terrorist?

[gorski]

The best part of it is when you - in the best autistic manner - claim how what I write has nothing to do with what you write...

So, here, wriggle out of this one [a few examples of what you can't see, so it doesn't exist ]:

Chile

"Operation Condor", was formally launched in 1975 by Colonel Manuel Contreras of Chile's state security agency, the National Intelligence Directorate, (DINA).

Condor enabled the Latin American military states to share intelligence and to hunt down, seize, and execute political opponents in combined operations across borders. Refugees fleeing military coups and repression in their own countries who sought safe havens in neighboring countries were "disappeared" in combined transnational operations. The militaries defied international law and traditions of political sanctuary. Condor made use of parallel prisons, secret transport operations, routine assassination and torture.

Phase #3 of "Operation Condor", which allowed assassination in other countries, including United States and Europe, was activated. Condor ("Phase III") was its capability to assassinate political leaders. Victims included former Chilean minister Orlando Letelier -- a fierce foe of the Pinochet regime -- and his American colleague Ronni Moffitt, in Washington, D.C.; Chilean Christian Democratic leader Bernardo Leighton and his wife, in Rome; ex-president of Bolivia Juan Jose Torres, in Buenos Aires; and two Urugunyan legislators known for their opposition to the Uruguayan military regime, Zelmar Michelini and Hector Gutierrez Ruiz, also in Buenos Aires.

In the journal Social Justice Vol.26, author Professor of Political Science, and Director of the Latin American and Caribbean Studies Program writes that in the first two cases, "DINA assassination teams "contracted" local terrorist and fascist organizations to assist in carrying out the crimes. Clearly, Operation Condor was an organized system of state terrorism with a transnational reach."

France

The sinking of the Rainbow Warrior, codenamed Operation Satanic is attributed to France. While docked in Auckland, New Zealand, the Greenpeace ship was bombed by the French foreign intelligence service in order to prevent interference with a French nuclear test in the Pacific.

Whatever next?

Perhaps you'll put together an argument of your own instead of incessantly copying and pasting others' work? It just looks like you don't have any arguments of your own. Weirdo

You really are weird. Utterly incapable of putting your own argument alongside evidence. I sincerely hope your parents are not wasting money on your education

 

[gorski]

I'll tell you what's really weird: knowing you haven't studied the subject at all but presuming you're gonna sort it all out, however potentially complex it may be, and in complete disregard to the previously done work of some of the best minds we might have on the topics, with no tools acquired beforehand, "come up with your own theories" so freely, so as to embarrass yourself so tremendously... and keep coming back for more...

Stupid, arrogant, ignorant, masochistic or... all at once or some weird combination - dunno... But!

Weird indeed!!!

 

[Spion]

knowing you haven't studied the subject at all

No, of course I haven't - I've only been alive for more than four decades, been witness to 'terrorism' and its effects fairly close up since I was small, have been involved in politics for 25 years and have two degrees in very relevant subjects.

I suspect you're very young or are somehow psychologically wedded to that worst aspect of academia, a crippling inability to get to the point. Whichever it is, you certainly manifest an extreme fright of putting forward your own view

Are you going to define 'terrorism' at all on your own thread or are you just here for the ad homs?

 

[selamlar]

Anyway, arguements about definition aside, the answer is clearly Leila Khalid.

She's purdee, and I've met her.

 

[El Jefe]

She's purdee, and I've met her.

Really?

What context (if you don't mind me asking?)

 

[selamlar]

Not all that exciting tbh.

At a meeting in London.

 

[nino_savatte]

Sendero Luminoso or The Shining Path...I just like the name.

 

[CyberRose]

 

[chainsaw cat]

White Rabbit.

Can you try and tone down the intelligence please porky? You're blinding some of us.

You really are stupid and quite a twat!

OK, in that case: it's most likely that I am older than you, have more degrees than you, much more experience in that regard than you [having come from ex-YU], I am studying the subject closely at the mo for my MA, and no - I am not "too proud" [read LAZY, ARROGANT and STUPID] to get into what the rest of world has already thought on the subject.

Besides, you started with the ad homs, git! So, shut up and take it like a man now!!!

 

[CyberRose]

Not my favourite terrorists by any means, but probably worth a mention on this thread purely because of the impact their actions had on the modern world:

*YAWN* No amount of adolescent insults, boasting, plagiarised text or the posting of links can cover the yawning absence of genuine reasoned argument on your part

It's not an ad hom to ask you to define terrorism, which you still haven't done. Are you going to do that?

 

[CyberRose]

I have come up with a very useful definition of the word "terrorist/terrorism" that is pretty hard to argue against:

A terrorist is a person or a group fighing for a cause you do not agree with

 

[Spion]

I have come up with a very useful definition of the word "terrorist/terrorism" that is pretty hard to argue against:

I found another one . . .

Terrorists are bombers who lack access to military aircraft

Looka heRe, twat: the definition "you" gave is NOT yours AND it has been abandoned by anyone with any brains, so...

Why do I bother...?!?

 

[ViolentPanda]

You should learn to think Spion, qualify your statements and generally think before you write, especially so arrogantly and kinda full of yerself, but with nothing to back it up, as it were...

Quoted for posterity.

Fave terrorist: Unabomber

 

[twistedAM]

Amilcar Cabral - was a Portugeuse colonial worker in charge of mapping Guninea Bissau and Cape Verde. He gave the dumbass Portuguese the wrong maps and gave the freedom fighters the correct ones. Hence when they were fighting the Portuguese stood little chance and Amilcar was there on the frontline in the right location. The Portuguese were the last to give up their empire but GB & CV were the first to fall in Africa.

Well, blessed is just about everybody with a vested interest in the status quo, as far as I can tell.

 

[8ball]

The cheesemakers?

 

[ViolentPanda]

Hmmm, I've decided to categorise my "favourite terrorists" so that they fit into various "pigeonholes".

Favourite strugglers against colonial oppression:
Toussaint L'Ouverture.
Queen Nanny
The Castro brothers

Most widely-publicised right-wing murderous shitbag:
Stefano delle Chiaie.

Most widely publicised left-wing murderous shitbag
Illich Ramirez Sanchez

Favourite terror-burd:
Leila Khaled

Most impressively venal colonial oppressors:
1) The USA
2) Belgium
3) The British Empire, it's corporate predecessors and descendants.
4) The Roman empire
5) The Umayyad Caliphate

 

[skyscraper101]

I quite like the "lyrical terrorist"

Izzzzziiiiiitt! LOLZ.

 

[selamlar]

The cheesemakers?

Well, obviously, this is not meant to be taken literally. It refers to any manufacturers of dairy products.

 

[Spion]

Looka heRe, twat: the definition "you" gave is NOT yours AND it has been abandoned by anyone with any brains, so...

Why do I bother...?!?

You haven't bothered. You haven't bothered to provide a definition of 'terrorism' on your own thread on the subject. I think you're a shitter - too scared to put forward an argument because you're shit scared of having it ripped apart. Your blind acceptance of a term which is in itself questionable in terms of the power relations it embodies demonstrates your lack of thinking on this. So, come on - get yer definitions out. . . and make them yours instead of plagiarising whatever you can find on the net

 

[CyberRose]

I quite like the "lyrical terrorist"

No way! She's a complete try-hard and therefore not cool at all!
