You can come up with a bunch of nonsense that you don't know what a "terrorist" is and it is just a word. Why don't you look it up in the dictionary? It's not just a word. It actually means something and it has a definition.

If you and I put together a group of guys that don't like Mexico or the Mexican government, what would we be if we decided to sneak into Mexico with explosives and blow up a bunch of buildings in Mexico? We would be terrorists. That would be a terrorist act. It's not debatable whether that would be terrorism or not. That would clearly be terrorism.
Far too much nonsense.
So, if you and I go to Mexico to blow up some buildings because we believed "Allah" or "Yahway" or "God" told us to, and that we'd go immediately to paradise to feast forever on 72 virgins, is that "terrorism" or "religious fanaticism"? It sounds very "nuts" to me, no matter how you shake or bake it.
Words are what people die and kill for. Agree or not.
