Thats a good change, just as marksman said it is confusing. Everyone could be an islamist, from a main-stream muslim "democrat" to a Bin-ladin person.

I really don't understand the word Islamist. Why is there no such thing as Christianist, Hinduist, Jewishist, buddhis- oh. Nevermind.

But the word Islamist has negative connotations when in fact anyone can be an Islamist as Khadafi mentioned. It is confusing. The media should chose their words more carefully and fairly.
