Terrorism def'n - is the only difference between that and war the use of the term unlawful? And what side gets to proclaim whether what they are doing is lawful or not?

So, if the UN declares that the US-led action in Iraq took place under false pretenses and is therefore illeagal, is the US guilty of terrorism? Damn right they are, but I'm sure there will be a lot of bluster and finger pointing to cover up this obvious fact
