Seems they took intentional measures to insure the killing would be remarkable in so far as perhaps instilling terror within those who hear about it. How is this group/gang any different than "isis" in this regard? However, I can't find any indication the suspects will be charged with "terrorism".

As many as 10 members of the MS-13 street gang lured a man into a park in Wheaton, Md., spoke with one another over walkie-talkies as he arrived, stabbed him more than 100 times, decapitated him and then cut out his heart, according to police documents made public Wednesday in Montgomery County District Court.

Not sure about playing dumb, but I suppose it is a "loaded" question.
I believe freedom of thought is one of the few "absolute" freedoms & "terrorism" laws (akin to "hate crimes") unnecessarily pile on an additional layer of charges to target the "content of the mind" while the action committed is sufficient to press charges upon without any need for "psychoanalysis" to be injected into the criminal sphere.

Do you actually believe it matters to the family of someone killed whether an MS-13 member holds up the decapitated head of a victim on a video and utters X string of words vs. Isis doing the same thing, but says Y string of words?

He's clearly stoking a very deep seeded undercurrent of religious intolerance, yet the vast majority of the population (i.e. little timmy) are willing to surf along on the tops of the waves - blissfully unaware of the inconsistencies with respect to very nebulous legal paradigm that ultimately restricts freedom of thought when there already exists plenty of legal instruments to pursue "evil doers".

^ this alludes to the crux of the matter.
A little old lady might be "terrorized" at the site of a 6-5" individual who's dressed like a gang member walking toward her on the sidewalk in LA, yet she might feel more at ease if same individual dressed in an Armani suit. What if Armani suit guy sucker punches her at the last second as they pass one another, yet gang clad individual made a big show of trying to envoke fear from old lady as he approached and then followed up by punching her. Should additional charges be leveled against gang colors guy because he purposely envoked "terror", yet Armani suit guy should receive a lesser charge because he "saved" old lady from mental anguish?

Neither of the two scenarios you just made up are an act of terrorism despite the old lady being terrorized.

Aristotle wrote countless
Aristotle wrote countless pages divided into several "volumes" on the topic of politics and you want a "Google definition"? Hopefully, you are just trolling on this ... because it's back to "two good eyes" if you really believe any comprehensive definition of politics can be effectively delivered in a sentence or two.
^ and this is all a digression from whether "terrorism" necessarily needs to be "politically" motivated (in some sense of the word).
