"violence and intimidation against British soldiers"

Read that line again - I don't consider actions (leading to or during a full scale conflict) against opposing soldiers as terrorism in the "modern sense" of the word.

Yes war is terror, terrorizing and many invading armies throughout history have used "terror" as part of their strategy.

I feel as though we are drifting too far from useful discussion - I will disengage with respect.
