Terrorism is reprehensible in either direction, because innocent civilians die. Denilson's point, which is similar to points Miles has made in the past, is that the U.S. is not blameless in these things, as a lot of the military strikes, whether it be drones or whatever.... kill a lot of innocent civilians as well. The point is the U.S. does stick its nose where it doesn't belong. Ideally, if you get down to it, the U.S. should limit itself to defending its own borders and people. That line that gets crossed whenever the U.S. takes on the role of global policeman is a very dangerous line to cross. It's common knowledge that a lot of U.S. actions abroad (in the name of global peace-keeping) are really driven by financial interests. That's not a good enough reason. So naturally there's a backlash. It doesn't make it right, and terrorists are the worst kind of people, worthy of the worst type of treatment when caught. But other countries can and will get pissed off.
