SIRATYST (Stuff I Read and Thought You Should Too) “Either the triumph of imperialism and the destruction of all culture, and, as in ancient Rome, depopulation, desolation, degeneration, a vast cemetery; OR, the VICTORY OF SOCIALISM, that is, the conscious struggle of the international proletariat against imperialism.” Rosa Luxemburg

Dear Mr. Jansen--
War is explicitly not terrorism. War is statecraft. Any nation eschewing war will cease to exist.
Our duly elected leaders are duty-bound to prosecute our interests abroad. When diplomacy fails, war results. This is an absolute fact throughout human history.
So to say the war is "wrong" in naive at best. To say that war is terrorism is just plain incorrect.
You will do your (our) cause more justice by being correct. Try to leave your emotions out of it.
Regards,
Mikey
