Why does the right-wing media insist on calling Kurdish terrorists "rebels" ?

Answer 1

Rebels, insurgents, terrorists, militants, radicals.......what real difference does it make what they are called?
As Shakespeare might say, "A rose by any other name is still a rose."

Answer 2

And exactly which "right wing media" would that be? Last time I (or anybody else) checked the media (with the possible exception of Fox) is *NOT* right wing. In case you hadn't noticed the Media, like Al Reuters, have been calling terrorist anything but that "inflammatory " word from almost before the WTC finished falling.... I'm assuming that you have records of your "righteous" rants against them at that time to show your "non bias"

Answer 3

it somewhat is the way that Propaganda works. they attempt to physique public opinion with the aid of utilising distinctive buzzwords to portray the comparable image from distinctive perspectives. Bush's grandpa funded Hitler and his daddy ran the CIA. Bush is familiar with all approximately the thank you to apply propaganda. The PKK has been attacking Turkish civilians in Turkey with American weapons that have been funnelled to them. Even the puppet government of Iraq considers the PKK to be a 17 november.

Answer 4

Spin, I assume - I can't say for sure, the only local FOX affiliate is in Oakland and my antenna can't pull it in. Same reason the much more prevelent left-leaning media calls illegal alien invaders 'undocumented.'

Answer 5

The same reason the left calls suicide bombers "insurgents." Just different brand names.

Answer 6

Because there is a financial interest with them, so to the right wing they are not "all THAT bad".

Pure hypocrisy. Homeland safety sold to the highest bidder.
Disgusting.
