Revision as of 15:43, 2 November 2004 by 81.1.116.167 (talk)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Regarding "Earth Liberation Front - USA (extremist environmentalist) - avoids harming people or animals, but is considered by the FBI to be a terrorist group": the ELF claims credit for tree spiking, which is the equivalent to planting land mines in civilian places, so I think the "avoids harming people" is a bit of a stretch. I'm going to change it in 24 hours unless anyone has a compelling reason not to. 141.154.203.120
The main thing missing from this list is that there is no way to see if a group is active today or is something from history. Could we have a range of years after the name, for example? --Zero 01:22, 25 Feb 2004 (UTC)
On the list as it currently stands, defunct groups are listed in italics. --GCarty 08:32, 25 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Extreme Zionist Groups
Should Kach and the JDL be put with the pre-Israel Zionist terror groups (to put all Zionist groups together), or should they be classed as Jewish fundamentalists (and therefore put in the Religious terrorists section) or even as Zionist fascists (and therefore put in the Right-wing terrorists section)?

Religious groups
Why is the only religion Islam here? To name two, the KKK is certainly Christian and the JDL is definitely Jewish. If there are no objections within a few days, I'll redundantly add these groups (and others) to the religious section.
Nationalists & Right-Wing
There seems to be a lot of cross-over. Also, I'm not sure "fascist" really applies to the Zionist groups. —Ashley Y 10:02, 2004 Sep 3 (UTC)
Does a group become terroist just because the USA and Israel say so
Many of the groups here are legitimate national liberation groups - For instance the PLO is recognised by the vast majority of countries and has observer status at the United Nations there are many more examples - Does wikipedia only respresent the USA point of view or is it an effort of the global community. Hisbullah was created when Isreal invaded Lebonon a action which cost 17000 lives of the Lebenese people. Isreal them for many years occupied a large buffer zone i Lebenon. UN has passed 11 resolutions againsed Isreal stronger than those paases against Saddam who was invaded. Many more UN resolutions would have been passed if the United States did not excercise its veto in the security council more than 123 times in favor of Israel and against the rest of the security council. To call some of the groups fighting against the brutal occupation of oppressed people terrorist is just following the line of the USA
