1.You woud call anyone who kills someone from royalty a terrorist? Black Hand didnt go around and kill people who didnt share their nationality, religion, beliefs which is what terrorists and separatist groups usually do... they were a group of serbian nationalists who didnt want to be under Austrian rule and wanted to be part of Serbia.They had some simillarities with terorists (seeing as how they didnt care what their actions might do their own people) but i wouldnt call them actuall terorists.

2.Doesnt chnage the fact that Iraq was innocent, just like Serbia back than

3.It was used, yes, but one side tried everything to pervent the war...

1. A separatist group who kills others in order to achieve it's goals is a terrorist organisation.

2. There were strong nationalistic sentiments in Serbia, which caused them to separate from Austria-Hungary in the first place, even though that wasn't the best course of action. These sentiments were shared and probably encouraged amongst that terrorist group.

3. In terms of sides, all sides wanted the conflict to take place (i mean in this case Austria-Hungary and it's allies, but also all the countries who jumped in to help Serbia).

1.Black Hand didnt kill ''others'', it killed Franz Ferdinand

2.Seperated from Austria-Hungary? Serbia was never part of Austria Hungary. Serbs got their independece by fighting Ottoman Empire in the beginning of 19th century

3.Serbia didnt wanted conflict to take place, just its allies
