And what do YOU call it?

Many Palestinians in Charlotte sat glued to their televisions and computers Wednesday for news on the historic Palestinian election.

Feelings were mixed on the expected impact: Some called the Palestinians' first truly competitive vote a monumental sign of future democracy. Others considered it a meritless maneuver when some areas are still under what some call Israeli occupation.

Hmm. And exactly what might the Foremost Newspaper of the Carolinas call it?
