well i consider it a terrorism attack, but that dosent mean that he belongs to any terrorest gruops,
he admitted his action was practiced based on political views,
he coweredly attacked a deffensless man and women just because they are forigners
he caused terror to the couple and the people who was there when the incident happened (altohgt many who was there shares his same political view about the incidents in the Gaza Strip)

its a terrorism attack that should not be taken slightly, thats how it all starts

This is complex , I mean we tend to sympathize with the human side here .
But as political and cold , I think this man should’ve never got what he was sentenced as.
by the way , I love your article on ” how we define Terrorism ” . It’s well written and offers a fresh and mono sided perspective.

Haha that is funny, how about we start taking showers since the summer is already here in Jordan.
But seriously we need to define terrorisim, if the attacker is mentaly sick and doesnt realize and understand his crime, how can he be a terrorist?

He was stabbed, not shot, correct?

I would deduce that if you have a long beard and are Islamist and you kill someone, you are a terrorist. Everyone else is a murderer.
