Not a definition of terrorism
[edit]The current wording in the article is misleading "UN Security Council Resolution 1566 picked up loose ends from 1373 by actually spelling out what the Security Council sees as terrorism:" because that is not what the resolution says:
- Recalls that criminal acts, including against civilians, committed with the intent to cause death or serious bodily injury, or taking of hostages, with the purpose to provoke a state of terror in the general public or in a group of persons or particular persons, intimidate a population or compel a government or an international organization to do or to abstain from doing any act, which constitute offences within the scope of and as defined in the international conventions and protocols relating to terrorism, are under no circumstances justifiable by considerations of a political, philosophical, ideological, racial, ethnic, religious or other similar nature, and calls upon all States to prevent such acts and, if not prevented, to ensure that such acts are punished by penalties consistent with their grave nature;
It does not say that terrorism is, what it says is "that criminal acts ... which constitute offences within the scope of and as defined in the international conventions and protocols relating to terrorism ... are under no circumstances justifiable..." and that is not a definition of terrorism. -- PBS (talk) 11:17, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
Meeting record
[edit]The meeting record can be found at http://www.un.org/en/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol=S/PV.4385 (which also contradicts the time of the meeting). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Batikkhmerdovepawn (talk • contribs) 20:24, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
