Is there such a word as 'terrorisms'?

You can have different forms of terrorism, so theoretically it is countable, but since terrorism is used as a blanket term to describe various incidents of terrorist activity, it stands as a plural without the need for the s.
Incorrect that words ending -ism cannot take plural form. Neologisms for example. It depends entirely on the sense.

Not really. You're trying to make a plural out of a singular word and it does not work that way.

Yes. The definition is "The United States of America". Another definition is "The State of Israel".
