What he is saying is that the way you define terrorist isn't simple black and white
I understand what he's saying and I think terrorism IS black and white.
OK, lets take the Liberal Left's scenario and say that this is all about oil, that we invaded to get ahold of their oil reserves. I have no problem with that. All Hussein did with it was buy weapons and build palaces for himself while his people suffered in abject poverty and his country's infrastructure was neglected and in ruin. In the meantime, the rest of the civlized world need what god so problematically placed underneath this group of medieval, backward, tyrannically governed, intellectuallly stunted and ridiculously unorganized human beings.

But suicide bombing? If only people had enough passion as they do for constructive reasons and for the good of humans. But alas, their passion is in the wrong area.
Yes, alas it is. And I hope they regret what they did when they don't get their damn 72 virgins in Paradise, and their families run out of the martyr-money given them by the cowards who wouldn't do it themselves. And where are all the middle-eastern afterlife-channellers chanelling all the angry and resentful 'martyrs' who were duped into blowing themselves to bits for nothing??

And I'd say they're pretty intelligent - heck, most of the terrorists of 9/11 were of the upper class elite from say Saudi Arabia.
Since when does being from the 'upper-class elite' from anywhere in the world inherently bestow one with intelligence? Ted Bundy was a mass-murderer, and his family was rich. The Menendez Brothers chopped their billionaire dad to pieces with an axe. Adolph Hitler was an upper-class elite. Don't get me started with the Kennedys.

What they (the 9/11 terrorists) did was a brilliant move no one would have expected.
By the way, the fact of the matter was that it was well-known in the intelligence community that terrorists wanted to apprehend an airplane to use as a guided missile. What wasn't known was the time and place.
