I find it somewhat problematic, at least from a technical point of view, to list many of the murdered El Salvador clergy as martyrs, since many of their assasins were themselves CINOs (Catholics in name only). If we were to follow that logic, then the murder of Yitzhak Rabin in Israel would also have to be considered a form of martyrdom in the Jewish tradition, Rabin having been killed by an extremist Jew. This is of course different from typical cases of martyrdom, where religious believers are killed by non-believing persecutors, such as in the French Revolution and in the Spanish Civil War, where fanatical Masonic forces ordered the killings of priests and nuns.
