"Do you think they were TERRORISTS or do you think they were MARTYRS?"

What is it you don't understand?......the term martyr is not necessarily a flattering term especially if you're on the side that gets injured. But you can't change the definition to suit yourself. My dictionary says...Martyr.."one who chooses to suffer death rather than renounce religious principles. 2. One who sacrifices something very important to him in order to further a belief, cause, or principle.

So no matter what you narrow mindedly think or believe, it doesn't change the fact that the terrorists were martyrs....
You can disparage the term if you like but the definition will still remain. We don't have to debate the definition of the word terrorist, there is no disagreement there.
