I hope it's helpful for you

Explanation:

There is no universal agreement on the definition of terrorism.[1][2] Various legal systems and government agencies use different definitions. Moreover, governments have been reluctant to formulate an agreed-upon and legally binding definition. Difficulties arise from the fact that the term has become politically and emotionally charged.[3] In the United States of America, terrorism is defined in Title 22 Chapter 38 U.S. Code § 2656f as "premeditated, politically motivated violence perpetrated against noncombatant targets by subnational groups or clandestine agents".[4] In general, terrorism is classified[by whom?] as:

The use of violence or of the threat of violence in the pursuit of political, religious, ideological or social objectives

Acts committed by non-state actors (or by undercover personnel serving on the behalf of their respective governments)

Acts reaching more than the immediate target victims and also directed at targets consisting of a larger spectrum of society

Both mala prohibita (i.e., crime that is made illegal by legislation) and mala in se (i.e., crime that is inherently immoral or wrong)
