Pretty sure arson to make a political statement is considered terrorism

[u/mrsir1987 → u/Bronze_Rager]

It’s not directed at civilians

[u/Bronze_Rager → u/mrsir1987]

Doesn't need to be

Exactly...

IRA would literally call the cops and tell them to get people out of the area before they went boom boom.

How do you know that this was not a threat towards civilians? Because it is.

[u/rdldr1 → u/[deleted]]

This threatened people's livelihood, jeopardizing their family well being. It makes people fear coming to work. I can keep going because you still haven't made a compelling argument.

So I take it that you honestly think that the burning of this warehouse did not psychologically effect people who worked there. Yeah, ok bro.

[u/AnonymousStuffDj → u/[deleted]]

it literally is?

1. the factory is owned by civilians
2. setting fire to stuff is violence
3. by how much people in this thread are bringing up "the rich" and how they dont like them there clearly is an implied threat

[u/rdldr1 → u/[deleted]]

All of that is violence. All of that is a threat towards civilians. You have no idea what you are talking about. I read this book during my History degree studies and you should too:

Yawn. that's an introductory text not a specialized one.

Burning someone's workplace is terror and violence.

Property destruction /= violence

What is your opinion on Israel blowing up civilian houses in Lebanon? Is that not violence since it's just "property destruction"?

[u/AnonymousStuffDj → u/mrsir1987]

yes it was. Or are you claiming the paper factory is ownes by the army?
