The application does not explicitly say so, but one can only assume that answering yes to any of these questions would result in the denial of your application. While I think those are good grounds, I have to wonder if people really every answer yes to these questions. If you are a terrorist, would you admit it in a U.S. visa application? Would a wanna be terrorist think that they could admit it and get a visa?
Maybe they put the questions on the form because it looks like they are doing something. Perhaps they do it so they can add another criminal charge if the terrorists manages to get into the country. "Ha, you think you are trouble for blowing up buildings, we've got you dead to rights on lying on an immigration form."
