He was a lawyer and a diplomat.
But in the British eyes, a treasonous traitor.
By your logic, Osama Bin Laden didn't pull the trigger either. Has lots
of degrees including economics.
Don't get me wrong, if I saw Osama and could kill him, I would. But the
point is, one sides hero is the other sides enemy. It is relative to
your
position in the field.
By most intelligent people's logic, you're a ninny.

It is always true that one man's terrorist is another man's patriot.
The winner also always gets to decide how that person goes down in
history.
The Vietnamese named their capital city after Ho Chi Minh.
If things had turned out the other way it might be Johnsonville or
Nguyen Van Thiu City and 80,000 Vietcong would have been rounded up
and shot..
Ummm... being a "treasonous traitor" (which is fairly redundant but look who
wrote it) is quite different than being a terrorist.
