Maybe I'm not fully versed in The Troubles, but why must Irish unification be terrorism?

In the episode it is stated that Irish unification happened because terrorist attacks kept happening for decades and the British government eventually just gave in to the terrorists.

Oh, you're right. I'm well versed enough in Star Trek to have already known that. For some reason I didn't actually think about the episode.
