Call them what they are: DISSIDENTS

I don't like the title of this Arutz 7 article:
Charges Against Anti-Expulsion Protesters to be Dropped

I don't think the term, "Anti-Expulsion Protesters," says what the protesters really are.
I don't think the term, "Anti-Expulsion Protesters,"will help human rights activists understand what is at stake.

Those who disagree with government policy are dissidents*!

*A dissident, broadly defined, is a person who actively opposes an established opinion, policy, or structure. The term can be used to refer to a number of types of dissidents, including political, social, and militant dissidents.
