"QUESTION: -- the U.S. Ambassador in Beirut condemned everything, but
she stopped short of calling the – calling this a terrorist attack. Are there
rules to call attacks terrorist or not?
MS. PSAKI: Well, we do note a group calling itself Aisha, the Mother of Believers Brigades for Foreign – let’s see – Missions has claimed responsibility for the attack. We have condemned it in the strongest terms. As you’re right, I don’t have any more for you on it. We’re obviously still looking into the details of what took place.
QUESTION: But you’re not calling it terrorist?
MS. PSAKI: I am not at this point." (thanks Sean)
