Why BBC doesn't call Hamas militants 'terrorists' - John Simpson

I guess not strictly news - but with all of the vitriol I have seen in discussions on the Israel situation, that have boiled down to arguments over wording, I feel that this take from the BBC is worthy of some discussion.

Mods, feel free to remove if this is not newsy enough.

Cause that's the fucking argument you have constructed now.

That is the argument I'm making. Which label was able to persist? To many conservatives they still see him as a liberator.
