Terrorism (Earth-5875)

Terrorism is the use of intentionally indiscriminate violence as a means to create terror among masses of people; or fear to achieve a financial, political, religious or ideological aim. It is used in this regard primarily to refer to violence against peacetime targets or in war against non-combatants.

History
During the mid-22nd century, the Settlement Defense Front and the Koslovic movement carried numerous attacks against both civilian and military targets, leading them to be classified as terrorists by the United Nations.

During the Interplanetary War, the Palace of Westminster was victim of a domestic terrorist attack. It was restored five years later.

In 2511, a suicide bomber and member of the Freedom and Liberation Party loaded a nuclear bomb into a truck, detonating it at the Haven arcology, on Mato Grosso, Mamore. The attack led to two millions deaths and the injuries of 8.3 million people.

In 2553, rogue jiralhanae servants on Sanghelios detonated explosives on Ontom, killing many civilians. They were subsequently killed by the local militia.
