It most certainly is not!

By far, most Muslims, Arab or otherwise, are peaceful people.

Terrorism is a term usually used by those in power against anyone who opposes them. Be it physical terrorism or otherwise.

Many governments and individuals within governments today started as 'terrorists'.

When they lose they remain 'terrorists', when they win they become the new government and become 'reformers', 'freedom fighters' etc., and call others terrorists.

Terrorism has been used the Tamil Tigers (Hindus in Sir Lanka), the Irish Republican Army (Catholics in Ireland), the Irgun (Jews in the British Palestine), the Lord's Resistance Army (quasi-Christian Animists in Uganda), etc. It just so happens, that Arab Muslim terror organizations, such as al-Qaeda have turned their sights towards the United States which brings them into Americans' purview.

What was the slashing tactic the Arabs used in battle?

(In the Battle of Tours) Because of the Arab's sword shape, they would only try to slash at their enemies. The Arab sword was curved while the Frank's swords were straight and heavy. The Arab sword was easier to wield but the Frank sword would be able to pierce and you could hit people with it and it would break bones. So to answer your question directly, the slashing tactic was to just run in and slash their enemy's in battle, pretty much just swinging your sword around.


How does Pan-Arabism relate to terrorism?

Pan-Arabism has no relation to terrorism. Pan-Arabism is a secular ideology based on Nationalist doctrines and ethnic unity/hegemony. Terrorism (in the Arab World) is based on twisted perceptions of religious concepts like Jihad and Sacrifice for the Faith. The only commonality between these two movements was that they were both proposed in the same time and in the same place, (but by two very different groups of people).
