As I understand it, terrorism is a tactic. But terrorism is defined (in part) in the other thread as being "politically motivated."

I am having a difficult time thinking of a politically motivated use of terrorism that cannot be defined as part of an insurgency.

Maybe an isolated incident of "lashing out" by a dissatisfied person or group, as opposed to a sustained campaign intended to replace the government? Can't think of one right now . . .
