Assassination suggests a political motive, murder does not. You could say that assassination is murder+politics.

It just sounds better. It's the same thing.
Like euthanizing sounds so much better then a person just killed an animal. We won't even get into the word culling.... |

Not very important at all....
A person's character can be assassinated. A person's credibility. It's a word...and we all attach our own perception to it. I suspect the 'apparent' person in question was 'killed' in one faction's mind...another faction will see it as an 'assassination'...yet another faction will see it as murder. It depends on the perspective with which you see from....and also the energy attached to it. |

Assassination suggests a political motive, murder does not. You could say that assassination is murder+politics. Political Motive? But I've heard it said that John Lennon was assassinated. Ron |
