Instagram sorry for adding 'terrorist' to some Palestinian user bios::It says it fixed a problem "that briefly caused inappropriate translations" in some Instagram profiles.

I have long, long become skepical when someone is called a terrorist, especially in an official capacity or by a pundit.

Terrorist today is like communist in the 1960s, a derisive ideological buzzword.

Thanks to FBI gaslighting dozens of folks in long expensive sting operations, we shouldn't even count convictions in the United States.
