They're a government that the US recognizes, and that's widely recognized by other governments that the US recognizes. That makes them legitimate. Terrorists by definition do not include legitimate governments. Anyone that doesn't agree is a "terrorist sympathizer".
I don't necessarily agree, but that's just how it is.
What do you even mean by "international terrorists"? Is it what your government calls "international terrorists"? If so, then by definition they differ from, say, Al-Qaeda by the fact, that they are considered an ally by the USA (well, that, and that they have more resources).
Otherwise, it is your choice, whether you need a distinction like that. I don't see how it might be useful.

Why isn't anyone mad at Apple who (falsely) advertises iOS as being "Secure By Design?"
