Here we go again with the misuse of "Cowards"

From Merriam-Webster -

coward; one who shows disgraceful fear or timidity

Any reasonable person would correctly characterize the assassination of Benazir Bhutto as a horrible, despicable act committed by those that prefer to live in an uncivilized world ruled by fear and violence.

 

Sorry, but anyone that is willing to give their life in pursuit of their beliefs is NOT a COWARD. Was Benazir Bhutto a coward knowing full well that knew she was likely to be assassinated? According to Bush, anyone that gives their life for a political cause is a coward.

He called the 9/11 hijackers cowards. And while they were vile, evil and criminally deranged, cowards they were not. How many people would gladly give up the domestic comforts and live a minimalist life, devoted to a religious conviction that culminates in suicide?

No, cowards they are not.

It's unfortunate that the best leader America was able to find is either so ignorant that he doesn't understand what he is saying, or he purposefully wants to distort the language for political purposes.

Either way, we lose and the rest of the world loses.
