Yes, there can be absoultes. I can say that things like terrorism and genocide are ABSOLUTELY wrong. It doesn't matter who carries them out or for what purpose. And anyone who supports such activities is as bad as the terrorists themselves. And that includes groups like the Contras and Alpha 66, as well as groups like Hamas and Al-Queda.
Since you believe otherwise, please give me an example of when terrorism would be acceptable to you. And don't include names of countries or individuals in your example. Give me a hypothetical example using "Country A" or "Country B" or "Group A" or "Group B". Let's see you put your beliefs into words.
