We've seen violent Christian fundamentalists recently with the Colorado Planned Parenthood shootings.

While many around the world consider that a terrorist activity, it had not been labeled as such by US officials (the guy is only being charged with murder and not additional offenses).

I find the double standards to be what is truly offensive.

The Colorado Planned Parenthood shooters didn't pledge support to a worldwide movement of Christians trying to overthrow the western world order.

The one still alive describes himself as a "warrior for the babies". He also

> Mr. Dear described as 'heroes' members of the Army of God, a loosely organized group of anti-abortion extremists that has claimed responsibility for a number of killings and bombings."

He said the attacks were politically motivated.

But it's terrorism nonetheless. The anti-abortion movement in America is just as organized and well-funded as the group behind the San Bernadino shootings, if not better organized and funded. They also have the protection of 1st Amendment liberties here.

That's absolutely irrelevant. Terrorism is politically motivated violence, full stop. You don't have to be a card-carrying member in a "designated terrorist organization" to be a terrorist, and to suggest that you do is myopic and naïve.

What exactly is this nebulous western world order? These guys we're supposed to be wetting our pants out of fear of can't even agree themselves beyond some blathering about Israel.
