On Feb. 3, President Donald Trump tweeted that "a new radical Islamic terrorist has just attacked in Louvre Museum in Paris." Still, the attack was "radical Islamic terrorism" worthy of a public warning from the commander-in-chief of the U.S. military. He was certainly not called a "radical Christian terrorist" or "white supremacist terrorist." While working for CBC in Israel, I once searched the database of the Jerusalem Post for uses of the word "terror," "terrorist" and "terrorism." Today, the word terrorism is so objectively meaningless that the only sensible definition is: "Violence we disapprove of."
