Ii agree with your post, so it pains me to correct you, but soldiers wear uniforms.
Also, soldiers are not supposed to kill civilians without some major reason (usually life-threatening).
In both of these ways, muslim terrorists differ from soldiers and even guerrilla fighters do not often kill civilians. When a group starts killing civilians outside of the constraints of a war (yes, there are rules), they become known as "freedom fighters" or "terrorists," depending on which side of the fence you sit.

iam terribly sorry to derail again but i cant leave your words without a "small" correction
what would you say if i claim that muslim extremists are capable to occupy the states with their forces ? right, no way, so their soldiers fight their war in another way
about civilian casualties:
there have been 11 confirmed terrorist attacks by the al quaida since 1993 with a total of roughly 3,600 civilian victims (9/11 included)
now, let me present you some other numbers: guess how many civilians (mostly children) are still dieing yearly by american unexploded cluster bombs worldwide? over 5,000, every single year. as another expample, civilian casualties during the iraq-war: 89,000 (off the record) and again, there was no threat coming from iraq.
dont get me wrong, i have nothing against the states nor do i want to insinuate anything. it just makes me mad when i read something like "we fight for your freedom" in the desert of the middle east. the muslim holy war started with kuwait (oil), nothing else.
