Terrorism edit

The word 'terrorism' is used in the Russian context of the time, i.e. in the similar sense as Narodniks. --Soman (talk) 08:35, 12 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

I still think it needs more clarification. Nowadays, when people hear "terrorism" they think of suicide bombers killing women and children. I don't think the ZSWP supported such actions, and the article should be more specific as not to mislead the layperson reader. You're obviously more familiar with the subject then I and more capable of laying out what exactly they supported. --brew crewer (yada, yada) 16:48, 12 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

A reference to the Narodniks is now included. The reference is Thou Shalt Kill, page 35, available at http://books.google.com/books?id=U_SU7fxj9BMC. There is more detail there, but whilst ZSWP is the only party identified, the book talks about 'Jewish revolutionaries' in general when describing the different types of action. --Soman (talk) 19:06, 12 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
