The examples that you cite are terrorists within their own countries. The U.S., U.N., or any other foreign body would have to be invited to take part in the fun. Unless of course the terrorists were to attack someone outside their boundaries, in which case it becomes another matter.
EDIT: Just read your last post in the other thread, so now I think I understand where you're coming from a little better. In light of that, I'm editing this post.
