what intrested me in this post is the fact that Jews clealy admitted that Islam is true and Muslims who die fighting go to Jannah. Regardless of the disparity among scholars on this issue. I read several fatwas about it, I prefer not to judge and leave it to Allah.
However, again I fully agree with SisterJennifer. No one can actually call any dead person during a battle a martyre simply because only Allah knows the intention. Not only if the person carries an arm and fights boldy until killed. It all depends on the intention as in anything else, even posting here.
Alhamdulelah may Allah correct our intentions
