"Terrorists aren't nice people. They don't do nice things. But, and this is directed to Wibble, isn't it important to understand why they're doing it? Even if they're lying and they're really just undead Islamic cannibals who hate the smell of freedom in the morning, I can't understand the idea that it's bad journalism to report what they say. Of course they're lunatics, and of course you shouldn't think they're "good guys", and of course that's not what BBC or any other outlet that's doing its job wants you to think. They're reporting what these people say. You get to decide what you make of it."
