War on Children

A murdering car bomber killed 27, mostly children, in Baghdad today. As a throw-away line, the report notes:
The incident was similar to a triple car bomb attack near a US convoy in September last year in which 41 people were killed, 34 of them children.
This would be a devastating indictment of the tactics of terrorists if the media supported this war. But these aren't terrorists. They are bombers. Freedom fighters. Insurgents. You can search the entire article at the Guardian, however, and not find the word "terrorist" once. Not once.
