Fundamental Christian Terrorist is exactly what he is by any definition. The acts performed were designed for terror, not profit or any other motivation. Even if Rudolph was hired to do it, the motivation for the act itself by whoever hired him is to inspire terror in those with different beliefs from themselves.
I do also believe he had help while on the run from the locals. But I would NOT classify them as terrorists or even necessarily being as fanatical as Rudolph. In that section of the country, many many people do not trust or like the government, especially the Feds. Rudolph likely had a folk hero type status with them, so they'd help him just to continue to see it drive the Feds crazy.
