After London Terror Bombing Attack, Defining Terrorism In Israel - Israel News Agency
World leaders may struggle to define terrorism, but at least by identifying and outlawing specific tactics and targets, countries can cooperate to limit the tools terrorists use. For example, international agreements already address airline hijacking, sabotage, and other crimes aboard airliners, attacks at airports, and at sea. Not surprisingly, the world's diplomats have agreed that diplomats and diplomatic facilities ought not to be targets. Another agreement outlaws hostage-taking; other agreements deal with nuclear material, plastic explosives, terrorist bombings, and the financing of terrorism. Together, these comprise a piecemeal approach to outlawing terrorism. Inevitably, the new war on terrorism will provoke further debate on the definition.
