Europe Orders Britain Not To Call Terrorists Muslims, Even If They Are

The European Union have ordered the British press to stop exposing the religious beliefs of terrorists if they turn out to be Muslims.  According to the European Commission against Rasism and Intolerance (ECRI), the British press is to blame for an increase in so-called hate speech in the UK due to the fact that they often use anti-Islamic rhetoric when referring to terrorists. The report says: some traditional media, particularly tabloids… are responsible for most of the offensive, discriminatory and provocative terminology.
