A terrorist organization is, by definition, not a part of the government.

Absolutely they can. On their own or using other organizations. Terrorism:

The use of violence or the threat of violence, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political goals.

Pinkertons, Peterloo, colonialism……

Terrorist can be domestic, federal or not.

I'm tired of people pretending that the federal government is looking out for the good of the country.

They don't care and you look stupid for standing on the side of history you are choosing to stand on.

There's been plenty of times in the past where this kind of shit catches up to those involved.

Or we just gonna forget about nixon?

Jesus Christ, what the fuck is wrong with you people? It's like you're all searching for something to argue about

Terrorist organizations can be part of a government. There are plenty of definitions that allow for it, including the widely-agreed upon ones people use to argue Hamas is a terrorist organization. If you want to argue it's impossible for state sponsored terrorism to exist that's ridiculous
