Why attacks by whites called 'hate crime' and not 'terrorist'

Petition Details

According to the Oxford dictionary, the defintion of a terroist is "a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims".
The definition does not make any reference to race, religion, geographical location, nationality or gender.

Additional Information

But ask yourself, when you hear of a terror attack, what image flashes before your mind?
Without any investigation being carried out to establish the facts behind the attack in Westminster, the worlds media, politicians and police were calling the attacker a terrorist.
What evidence was there at the time to link the attacker to the above definition of a terrorist?

Why was the attack and brutal killing of Jo Cox MP not called an act of terrorism when news first broke?
