Webster's New Universal Unabridged Dictionary says this:

terror, intense fear.

and this:

terrorize,to fill with terror; to terrify; to apall; to frighten.

and most importantly, this;

terrorism, use of terror and violence to intimidate, subjugate, etc., especially as a political weapon or policy.

In what way were the six muslim "holy men" recently kicked off a U.S. Airways flight not terrorists?

Terrorism is not dependent on violence, but the perception of possible violence. 

For a group of men, muslim or not, to loudly proclaim prayers to Allah, to speak disparagingly of the U.S. and approvingly of Osama Bin Laden, to ask for seatbelt extenders and then not use them, to not sit in their assigned seats, but to spread themselves, strategically throughout the plane, in short, to behave as though violence were imminent was not "flying while Muslim", this was terrorizing a plane full of people and it's crew.

And now we know their political aim; to destroy U.S. airport security. 

With the help of my newly elected representative to Congress, Keith Ellison.

If, while standing in line at the airport, I were to loudly talk about the bomb in my suitcase, I would be arrested.  The fact that no terrorist attack in this country has been carried out by a middle aged Christian woman of Irish decent would be of no consequence.  Niether would the fact that the bomb I was talking about was a dvd of the movie Ishtar.  You can't talk about bombs at the airport.

Unless, I guess, you look, talk and act exactly like the 19 men who actually murdered 3000 Americans in a single morning, while attempting to murder tens of thousands more of us.

When those six Imams behaved as they did, they knew exactly what they were doing, and so do I; I looked it up in my dictionary.
