The Los Angeles Times is absolutely despicable this morning, in a piece shilling for the female Islamic Jihad suicide bomber who killed herself yesterday trying to murder Israelis. It’s no coincidence that pieces like this, adopting the language of terrorists to describe their heinous acts, always seem to be written by Arab journalists; this one is credited to Richard Boudreaux and Rushdi abu Alouf: Female suicide bomber in Gaza attacks Israeli troops.

GAZA CITY — An 18-year-old Palestinian woman strode defiantly toward an Israeli army checkpoint and blew herself up Monday, slightly wounding a soldier in the latest act of resistance among women to the occupation of the Gaza Strip town of Beit Hanoun.

American media relies on terrorist propagandists for their news reports from the Middle East, and unsurprisingly, they churn out terrorist propaganda, debasing the English language and whitewashing evil deeds. It’s shameful, and it’s a huge problem.
