this is obviously wrong. Even from your own definitions Mr. OP it is glaring that there is a gaping hole. If Militants do not use violence and terrorists are those who use violence against civilians, then who or what are those who use violence but not against civilians? To be more lucid, terrorists are specifically people who use the threat of violence to civilians and to coerce others or obtain a desired outcome. Terrorism is the act of using the threat of violence to civilians either through the promise of violence, or by actual violence, to obtain a desired goal. The defining trait of a terrorists is the threat of violence (could be cyber, economic etc) to civilians. Militancy may very well include an armed or violent struggle so long is it does not target civilians. There are also rebels/insurgents who are militants pursuing sovereignty or a related cause in a battle against the government. 1 Like |

By the OP definition, Niger delta militants cannot be regarded as true militants as they use force to destroy their own fatherland through blowing of pipelines. Most of them are not concern about the plight of their people but their own pockets. This explains the reason for the emergency of sudden millionaires among them without a tangible means of income. They are not patriotic even to their people and native lands as they practice their own form of militancy with bunkering, kidnapping and stealing. 1 Like |

Re: Difference Between Militant And Terrorist by Doyin2(m): 5:49pm On Jun 17, 2016 |
This is a very mischievous write up with a deliberate attempt to mislead the public. The FBI uses this definition: "Terrorism is the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives." Boko Haram and Niger Delta Avengers and the likes are all terrorists! Militancy refers to both of them.We have Islamic militants and Niger Delta militants, who use terror to achieve their objectives.

slimderek: goshen26: Doyin2: chidiandre: Wrong Militants fight to preserve their lives, resources, properties, culture, belief, etc by any means possible.

OjukwuWarBird: I pity your shallow knowledge.So your definition of terror exclude that used by Niger Delta or Islamic militants? Many Nigerians are so lazy to read or carry out their own independent research, such that they become so gullible to any trash thrown at them,either mischievously or ignorantly.. The FBI uses this definition: "Terrorism is the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives." According to the oxford dictionary: Militancy is the use of confrontational or violent methods in support of a political or social cause: Boko Haram and Niger Delta Avengers and the likes are all terrorists! It is high time we stopped all these nonsensical affiliations.What is bad is bad.Terror is terror, whether by Niger Delta militants or Islamic Militants! We should also learn to distinguish freedom fighters or agitators,secessionist,etc,from militants. An agitator,freedom fighter,rights activists,secessionist,etc are normally expected to be non militant or non violent.But if they now apply non provoked violence,terror or militancy,they become what they choose to become:militants or Terrorists!
