 :: Good point. When referenced, ""jihad"" should be ""self-declared jihad"" and ""jihadist"" should be ""militant on self-declared jihad"". ""Jihadist"" is a loaded term, like ""islamist"". With neutral POV: What is happening? Violence; war. With the analysts POV & reference: Why are they doing it? Self declared jihad. Concepts should be separate!
