Terrorism is after all a tactic.

After Bush declared the "war on terror", a number of US generals wondered, so we're going to fight against a tactic?


You can't fight a tactic any more than you can bomb a train of thought.

Lawrence is trying to redefine terror to be a tactic, so he can then say it was okay for the USA to use terror against the USSR in Afghanistan. It's kinda cool to watch him change his position in real time.
