The Weather Underground opposed a regime that used its superior military power to terrorized against other nations. The WU were extremely careful not to harm innocent bystanders. The WU never killed a cop, defense department officials, military personnel or politicians supporting the Vietnam war. The only people killed were 3 WU members when a bomb they were preparing went off. How exactly do Bill Ayers and his WU members qualify as terrorist while the likes of GWBush, GHWBush(remember the invasion of Panama and the killing of 3000 Panamanian civilians?), Niixon, Cheney, Rumsfeld, McCain(who specifically attacked civilian targets when a bomber pilot, a clear war crime) don't?
