They're using the same sort of relatively benign phrasing that most newscasts in the US use to refer to terrorists blowing themselves up with bombs in a crowd of people to murder them, calling them "suicide bombers" instead of what would more correctly signal their intent, "homicide bombers" because after all, the primary mission doesn't seem to be that of committing suicide, but that of killing infidels.

Uhm, do you see these horrible terrorists try to bomb Rio ? I mean, they are "infidels" are they not ? U _sure_ it's not US foreign politics ? hm, wonder..
