    Well not really. Terrorism is violence + politics. The only issue here is that Republicans (all major corporate leaders) have "politicized every single issue ever, especially human rights. Therefore this is terrorism.

      Well, yeah, there are political or ideological aims, which are believed to be achievable through fear. The violence itself is not meant to achieve much directly, but it spreads fear in the population that works towards some goal or another.

      Violence + politics is just war.
