Flawed Reasoning

... While I would agree that anyone that targets innocent civilians for political purposes to be a terrorist, then we must include everyone, regardless of their background and regardless of their sponsor, within that definition. Otherwise, the term becomes a meaningless word used only as a propanda tool.

I would prefer the media (aside from editorials) to give the facts to its readers or viewers without putting their personal spin on the news. I can then make up my own mind about who is or is not a terrorist.
