43. I do agree with you somewhat, but
couldn't any attack designed to cause terror be considered mass murder?

I would have to agree with you that many of our military's adventures count as terrorism.

But why should we limit the point the OP is making, to just attacks carried out by foreign citizens? To me - an attack is an attack. No matter what nationality you are.

I would have to agree with some of the other comments to the OP that mention the Olympic bombings and the Unabomber. I might even go as far to say the Columbine killers were terrorists. These were attacks carried out to terrorize American Citizens.

I'm not saying I blame Clinton at all for any of these attacks. I'm just trying to point out that the OP only states one attack on American soil during the Clinton years and I disagree.
