If they had botched their planning and killed someone during one of their intentional bombings, that would have been murder, correct?

I would say so. However, there's a difference between taking an action that leads to the unintended deaths of victims, and taking an action that leads to the unintended death of oneself. The people who were making that bomb were responsible for their own actions. That would not have been true of someone who was killed without ever knowing a bomb was set to go off.

What do you make of the well documented fact that one of the bombs they were building was an anti-personnel device planned for a dance at Fort Dix?

I believe I covered that in the post above.

They put lives at risk by bombing buildings.

Yes. I don't believe anyone here is suggesting that this was not wrong. It's all a matter of degree and perspective.
