Ekhlaas member Brayif74 has posted a short summary of the recent Homeland Security memo on what to call Jihadis. He notes that the new terms, like “terrorist” and “violent extremist,” are meant to discredit his comrades in the eyes of the public.
What interested me about Brayif74′s post is not that he noticed the memo–Jihadis read a lot of Western news. Rather, it’s that he is indifferent to the whole discussion. The response from the forum members is muted as well. That’s sort of how I feel about the issue.
