Dear Reuters, You Must Be Kidding


(Atlantic Monthly) Jeffrey Goldberg - A Reuters story on Wednesday's Jerusalem bombing reported: "Police said it was a 'terrorist attack' - Israel's term for a Palestinian strike." Those Israelis and their crazy terms! I mean, referring to a fatal bombing of civilians as a "terrorist attack"? Who are they kidding? Everyone knows that a fatal bombing of Israeli civilians should be referred to as a "teachable moment." Or as a "venting of certain frustrations." Or as "an understandable reaction to Jewish perfidy." I suppose Reuters will mark the 10th anniversary of 9/11 by referring to the attacks as "an exercise in urban renewal."
