Anyone who kills anyone with a bomb is a homicide bomber. It really IS a stupid term... they stopped using the term "suicide bomber" because they were afraid it was becoming a respected title of martyrdom among these crackpots... as if the title makes a difference

You're right. We should just call them terrorists. That's what they are. If Fox would report another terrorist bombing instead of a homicide bombing, it would put things in persecptive rather quickly.

FOX championed this phrase to REPLACE suicide bomber to more accurately reflect the murderous act. "Terrorist bombing" does NOT reflect murder.
