There’s always been a level of dehumanizing the enemy in just about any, every conflict through our history. I remember first hearing the term jihadi being used, but that’s cuz that’s what was happening. Muslim extremists going off on jihad. I’m not sure when and where but eventually jihadi turned into haji. The difference there being haj is a religious pilgrimage, so haji are those fulfilling their annual religious pilgrimage. So we ended up saying things like “3 hajis KIA” during training and live fire exercises. I myself said it about a million times while I was in the Army without even realizing what I was saying or the implication it was making. Regretted it ever since I found out what was really coming out of my mouth.
