Obama unwittingly ‘admits’ to US terrorism

The dastardly bomb attack on innocent civilians during the Boston marathon should be condemned by all.

President Barack Obama has stated “any time bombs are used to target innocent civilians is a terrorist attack”.

Can we now assume that President Obama is confirming that the US military has regularly, and repeatedly, carried out “terrorist attacks” when targeting innocent, unarmed men, women, and children in Iraq and Afghanistan, until now referred to as “collateral damage”, or is the president applying double standards?
