to quote the Washington Post. (Note: we added this statement to the timeline after Josh Gerstein of Politico asserted that the phrasing “acts of terror” showed Obama acknowledged “terrorism” was behind the attack. From our many years of covering diplomacy we would say there is a world of difference, but readers can draw their own conclusions.)
Killer phrased it awfully, but the term "act of terror" has never been an exclusive term for terrorism and generally has been used to mean "fucked up shit." Things like Assad using helicopters on his own citizens are seen as "acts of terror" but clearly aren't terrorism because Assad is the state. |
I can't wait for a statement to come out saying the president was under a strict deny policy in order to let the troops work without alerting the terrorists to military operations.
