It's beside the point. Terror bombimgs are almost
always homicidal. What's striking about these is that
they are suicidal. That's not a compliment or praise
or apologetics. But, moreover, using certain
vocabulary comes with a certain ideological apparatus.
If I referred, in the old days, to the "captive
nations," you'd think I was a right wing cold warrior.
