#3 Somehow, after 50 years of continuous yakking, there is no UN-recognized definition of terrorism. I think when they eventually come up with something, it'll be along the lines of what's arrived at in The Wahhabi Myth:

Concluding that the word "terrorism" is "fundamentally an epithet and a term of abuse, with no intrinsic meaning," Whitbeck adds, "Perhaps the only honest and globally workable definition of "terrorism" is an explicitly subjective one - "violence which I don't support."

#4  Sounds like an excellent department to start a "pre-emptive" budget cut/layoff strike on.
