I think you're using "terrorism" correctly but I think you've got a real flaw in your thinking:
Why do you assume the perpetrator is a foreign terrorist group or state?
Yesterday's bombings seem much more likely to have been carried out by one of us.

Good point. I suppose something I am trying to get across is, in the world bombings with tragic death tolls (30 vs 2) are too common of an occurrence. Unfortunately, Americans are so well insulated from the effects of our "we're bigger than you so if you screw with us we'll just bomb you into oblivion" mentality that we just rush off to war anytime we feel like it. Yesterday was a reminder of the reality that so many people have been living under- sometimes its even because of us. Regardless of where it came from, and as bad as it sounds, I hope this event puts a bad taste in our mouths when we hear the next story of how the United States killed more civilians.

Yeah, the US is the only one that kills innocents. Stupid argument, every country does crazy shit under the radar.
