Not sure what part you're pointing out.  Even the first line agrees with the basic definition.

My point is that each side can argue the issue to the death and both be correct.  But if your biggest complaint is that the MSM doesn't label the attackers as "terrorists," you're probably more invested in a specific conflict than others are.

Not a word that they're terrorists.
This article is actually very fair in its reporting.  Definitely not one to point to when arguing about the biased reporting of major news outlets

Have they ever reported an attack by Boko Harem and failed to call them terrorists?
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Even if you're correct in the terminology but it doesn't mention anything about the attackers
Imagine a headline
"Explosions in Gaza 5 reported dead"
That would be biased if Israel bombed them and it doesn't mention that and the world would be up in arms if it was reported this way

Probably not, and the same probably goes for every direct Hamas attack reported in the MSM.  These lone-wolf attacks are different.

Now I think you're really picking nits.  "Three Israelis killed in Tel Aviv and West Bank attacks" is the headline.  I see nothing wrong with that.  In the first paragraph it mentions the attacker "...by a Palestinian man."  Not sure what the problem is.

2 killed at a shooting in tel Aviv. HY"D.
Actual quote from a CNN article about the shooting:Israel has recently been hit by a wave of seemingly random stabbings of civilians and soldiers, apparently not directed by any particular organization.

No mention that it's Islamic terrorism. Just random stabbings. The knives probably acted on their own. Or maybe zombies?

The same way we condemn the media for misrepresenting the Israeli/Palestinian conflict we need to condem the Israelis for blaming all recent rocket attack on Hamas when in fact its ISIS affiliates. Hamas is a bad kid but now they behave. Why put everything on Hamas.

@IsraelHatzolah: Israeli air force strikes multiple Hamas terror sites in Gaza overnight, in response to Two rockets fired from the Gaza Strip.

@IDFSpokesperson: Last night, in response to rocket fire from the Gaza Strip, the IAF targeted 2 Hamas military training facilities and 2 other military sites

Israel doesn't need an excuse to eradicate Hamas.

Israel rules Jerusalem, so everything that Israeli arabs are doing should be called "done by the Israeli government"?

Why?

Hamas is clearly not in control over ISIS. Mind explaining why it is not a comparison?
