Haven't you noticed? Our PR folks have progressed from calling the scumbags, "terrorists" to "insurgents" to "criminals"....

There is a subtle difference, from what I see:
“Criminals” are Shia militia members (Mahdi Army), often in co-op with Iranian “Special Groups”.
“Insurgents” are the rapidly decreasing Iraqi Sunnis fighting against the Coalition.
“Terrorists” are foreign Al-Qaeda (or affiliated) members carrying out attacks against coalition troops and civilians.
