BBC and terrorism

I have mentioned more than once (here for example) that the BBC is reluctant to call ETA killers terrorists, so it is with interest that I see this from the BBC. Perhaps it’s a mistake. After all, the headline calls him a separatist, the BBC’s usual term for ETA murderers, and this description is repeated later in the article (see screenshot).

'No threat' to Basque separatist

A convicted Basque terrorist is trying to "blackmail" a Belfast court by warning he faces near-certain death if returned to Spain, it has been claimed.

Curiously, De Juana Chaos is the man on whose behalf the BBC posted an ETA propaganda poster.
