Why is it "war" if done by humans holding machines and "state terrorism" if done by humans controlling machines from a greater distance?
- jlgreco 14y agoWhy is it "terror" if done with airplanes and "war" if done by humans holding machine guns?
- chc 14y agoKilling people with airplanes is not categorically known as "terror" rather than "war." Lots of people were killed with airplanes in World War I, but while it was terrifying, WWI is pretty universally known as a war. So I don't take your point.
