White terrorists are still terrorists, and a van smashing into people outside a mosque is a terrorist attack.

@cwebber@identi.ca They are most definitely calling it that. The BBC is on right now.
Yeah, looks like I'm seeing articles describe it as such now. When it first happened I didn't find any doing so.
Law enforcement is intentionally cautious about how they label incidents and crimes. [Not just terrorism and acts of war, but even, for instance, whether they call something a homicide or a suicide.]
Responsible reporting always adheres to those official descriptions. It's not a conspiracy when they do.
