Not to be antagonistic Peter, but how do you define a 'terrorist'.
And as for Beirut, it could still be defined as a struggle. 1949 etc etc.. a bad year in Vietnam too ;]

Yes,I ve read it:
And its safe to say that originally the word meant "struggle",But the
terrorists have taken the word and given it mass exposure ,So now the
innocent word "Jihad" has taken on a new meaning .
It is synonymous with a terror group.
And can you answer this question:
If Killing Joke did nt mean it in its terrorist sense,Why did they have
a beyrouth(Beirut) remix?The Jihad which was going on in Beirut at the time
was an Islamic Jihad against Israel.
And why even the need to call it by an Arabic name?Why not use French?
