We must not call Charlie Hebdo killers 'terrorists', says BBC boss

#8  Playing the devil's advocate, I think he's right for the wrong reasons.

This was not a typical terrorist attack on a class of people but not on specific individuals.

The Charlie Hebdo massacre paralleled incidents like the Markov assassination or the attempt on Pope John Paul II's life.

A better designation than 'terrorists' would be something like 'freelance Sharia executioners' or 'islamofascistic death squad.'

Kufala's real reason for rejecting the term 'terrorism' is, of course, that a sizable fraction of his audience approves of the Charlie Hebdo massacre because it was an example of just Sharia punishment.

He will thus object to any choice of words that would cast the islamofascistic death squad in a bad light.
