Euphemisms

Egypt's military regime is justifying it's aggression against Morsi supporters by labeling them terroristss;sound familiar?  I think that most intelligent people have accepted the take-over as a coup;it's pretty hard find acceptable euphemisms for coup.But terrorists is an even bigger stretch.That's a US tactic.War on terrorism-label anyone that you want to get rid of ,a terrorist.Euphemisms come in handy.Manning &Snowden are treasonists;whistleblower or leaker of any kind,just isn't strong enough.Find an extreme enough euphemism and anything can be justified!
