I've never seen any proof that the Eastern block engaged in similar acts against the West. I've seen allegations, always from extreme right publications, usually made by some ex-Soviet defector. If they were true, however, I'd expect to see the government talk more about it and the mainstream press to pick it up.
As for guerilla war, I only consider that terrorism when the targets are civillians, as in the cases of the Contras, UNITA, RENAMO, etc.

Guerilla warfare essentially uses civilivan populations as shields. That's putting non-combatants into harm's way. |
That's a tactic, not a rule. Many guerilla armies did not do that, like the American army that fought the Brits, the Chinese Red Army, etc. The Contras didn't hide among civilians, but they did attack them. Same with UNITA and RENAMO. The two latter organizations both killed about a million people each. The Contras were kinda small potatoes, "only" killing 40,000.

Hence the term, terror-bombing. Yes, it was terrorism.

Hmmm...seems like a thin line. American guerillas would attack, melt back into the population and re-emerge during revolutionary. That put civilians at risk. I admit, this doesn't rise to the same standard of the other guerilla organizations you list -they are obviously much worse. I would say the Vietnamese resistance would be quite similar to the American resistance to the British. No Viet Cong terrorism in the US or against US citizens outside of Vietnam during the war.
