How would military advisors brief him on it? I’d say that could be the source of whatever term he uses.

Anything bad happens tomorrow, we'll be told we'd better put some ISIS on it.

0 calls it ISIS or ISIL and won’t say “IS” because then the public just might ask what it stands for and see that the first word is exactly what 0 doesn’t want them to see.

when Obama calls this emerging caliphate ISIL instead of ISIS, is he sending a well-hidden message to the terrorists that he is acknowledging and complicit with their plans to annihilate Israel and make its land part of their caliphate – or Levant?


ABSOLUTELY YES
