Common sense at the BBC

Seven militants and a security guard have been killed after a series of bombings in China's north-western region of Xinjiang

and the article goes on to say confidently:

"China has spoken in the past of what it calls a terrorist threat from Muslim militants in Xinjiang, but it has provided little evidence to back up its claims, correspondents say."


I guess when a series of bombings occur in China with the intent to cow the civilian population it is not a terrorist act after all, since the BBC says so.
