Some people who engage in foreign conflicts are called terrorists.

What is the legal difference between hiring a helicopter for use in a
coup against a west African government and sending supplies to the
Chechen rebels? If there isn't one, why isn't Mark Thatcher in
Belmarsh? Conversely, why aren't the "foreign terrorist suspects" in
Belmarsh prison free and, like Thatcher, at large in London? Why is an
alleged engagement in foreign military operations called terrorism one
moment and business the next?
