I see the douchebags at FauxNews still referring to "homicide" bombers
Edited on Sun Jun-21-09 03:58 AM by PretzelWarrior
this time in connection to the Iran state TV (and uncorroborated) report of a "homicide" bomb that killed one person (the bomber) and injured 3.

So this homicide bomber SUCKED, fuckednews. He only succeeded in killing himself. What would be a good thing to call a bomber where the only for sure fatality will be himself? Oh, I know...how about....

SUICIDE BOMBER like the rest of goddamn mankind?? Can you guys ever put your "being a dipshit" on pause even for a moment??

P.S. I think this bomb thing was a state deal to try winning popular sympathy for the government and attempt to turn people against the protesters.

2. they called the one in Iran Saturday a suicide bomber
But that was when Shepard Smith was the host. I sure noticed that. I thought they are "suicide" bombers when you agree with them, but (nonsensically) "homocide" bombers when you disagree with their aims. I don't know Shep's personal political views (he's on Fox, so he must be a righty, but he's gay, so how did he get hired there?), but he seems to be a decent fellow, trapped in the ignorant ooze. Or something.

3. they called it "homicide" on the news article I linked.
it was surprising, because I thought they had abandoned that whole FAIL strategy a few years ago.

4. Yeah and I liked how they refer to the Iranian regime as "ultra liberal"
and "left wing".

Idiots.

6. 'Homicide bomber' is an idiotic substitute for an inadequate term.
And make no mistake about it; 'suicide bomber' is an inadequate term for someone who tries to kill others with a violent act.

7. P.S.
On your P.S. - I'm tending to agree with you. And did you notice (I think it was CNN showing this last night) - the police offiers that were 'cornered' and had people throwing rocks at them?

Maybe I'm a wonky and wierd and bonkers conspiracy theorist - but I'm wondering if the Iranian leadership IS allowing only certain images to get out not to us in the rest of the world - but internally? And I also wonder if they could be responsible (placing a few moles in the crowd) for the trouble makers?
