#3 Some in the Arab world has tried something like this a number of times in the past. Basically, the idea is to define everything the US does against Al Q and everything Israel does to defend itself.

Unfortunately for the advocates of the idea, it would also define Egypt's action against the Muslim brotherhood, Sudan's genocide against Darfur, etc. as terrorism also.

This definition change is a basic idea of liberation theology.

#4 A Dangerous move.

Someone might liberate Venezuela from Chavez.

#7 There must be a legitimate struggle for freedom and self-determination that hasn't resorted to terrorism (that is targeting civilians to promote political change).

The US Revolution comes to mind. I could be wrong but I think India succeeded because they avoided terrorism. Oh, and they started their struggle at roughly the same time as the Palestinians and others.
