The only reason anyone knows what is meant by homicide bomber is because inside our brains we translate it to normal english. You hear "homicide bomber," and you understand what you are hearing is the right's politically correct way of saying suicide bomber. It's so stupid it's embarrassing. From now on, let's refer to WW2 kamakazi pilots as "homicide pilots." That's be just as assenine.

I guess I just don't see why anyone's so bent out of shape over it. No translation needed here--I hear it and I understand what is being said. Not a problem.

Think of the difference between the terms insurgent and terrorist. There's a reason why one is chosen over the other.

How can it be 'politically correct' to use the term 'homocide,' Huck?

I understand that you don't like the term, but it's most certainly NOT "PC."

Close but no cigar. - Those pilots were military men giving the last that they had by attacking military targets and I have yet to see these murderers consistently do that.
