The European Union says it will no longer use the phrase "Islamic Terrorism" to describe attacks carried out by Muslims. Instead, EU press releases will use the phrase "terrorists who abusively invoke Islam."
The words "Islamist," "Fundamentalist," and "Jihad" will also be banned, as part of a new "lexicon" that seeks to avoid offending Muslims.
The EU's counter-terrorism chief says the government is taking great pains to use language that "makes clear that we are talking about a murderous fringe that is abusing a religion and does not accept it"

What are your thoughts on this? In my opinion, they should be called islamofasicists because they are murdering people for no reason other then religion. How about those muslims who claim they are offended speak out to their "brothers" and tell them to cut the crap? That would be more productive than making innocent people adopt a lie. Such is the problem with living a cultic religion of hatred. Sad.
