Lol wut. Respect isnt the word to describe how people have responded to US symbols, since at least 40 years

It is respectful not to boo when the US flag is shown. Western countries have been quite respectful in that regard. Countries bombed by the US or otherwise afflicted by US decisions however...

Lol wut. People have burned the US flag in probably every country. Having respect for terrorists and the greatest threat to all life on earth is absurd

Everybody is a terrorist to somebody.

Get a large enough group of people, and you won't find anything that at least one person doesn't hate.

Terrorist has a specific definition. Someone hated ghandi enough to murder him, but Ghandi was not a terrorist.
