" You were saying (I thought) it was not a flattering term from any point of view. "

Wrong again....I was not attaching an adjective to the characterization. I was simply saying that the terrorists, with their act, qualify as martyrs by the strict definition of the term... You seem to think that it always signifies glorification of the act. To people who give birth to such acts it may be glorious but to those of us on the recieving end it is not. But it does not change the fact that the perps are martyrs.... I have no trouble calling them that since I attach no glory to it....
