Surprisingly, Star Wars is a great example of this. A rinky dink political group (rebels) blowing up a military installation (death star) is terrorism. That does not mean the action was unjustified.
But they're at war though, aren't they? I suppose the Empire would still spin it that way.
I mean, technically any rebel group is at war with their oppressors.
Terrorism that succeeds is called revolution.
It's not terrorism if it's war.
