AP STILL CALLS THEM "MILITANTS"

Good news is marred by bad description:

JENIN, West Bank - Israeli troops shot and killed three Palestinian militants in the West Bank town of Jenin on Wednesday and raided the nearby city of Nablus for the second time this week, placing tens of thousands of people under curfew. The army said the Islamic Jihad militants who were shot in Jenin had planned a suicide bombing in Tel Aviv that was thwarted last week. The dead included Ashraf Saadi, a spokesman for the group.

Good riddance, but I think it'd also be good if use of the word "militants" were rid of as well and the right word, "terrorists", were placed upon those thugs' heads instead. Clearly, the AP is seething and vengeful, aren't they?
