John Kerry is supposedly a “catholic”. If anyone is an apostate, it’s he.

John Kerry is Shia himself, so not surprised. He’s part of the “Iran is better than ISIS” faction which exists in the Soetoro Administration.

but Secretary of State John Kerry on Tuesday went further, labeling the Sunni terrorist group "apostates."

To call Muslims apostates, who follow the Koran and Hadiths to the letter , shows Kerry doesn't know much about Islam. -Tom

So amazingly ridiculous and disconnected from reality it boggles the mind. No wonder nobody in the world takes anything our VN war hero secretary seriously Hey, even heavy doping doesn’t cause this much hallucinating. He ( and his boss) are TM ( total mental) cases. Completely spaced out

The head of ISIS has a Ph.D. In Islamic studies. Perhaps he should know what Islam is?

This is similar to the argument Communists make. “Cuba is not real communism. The Soviet Union was not real communism.”

Faced with the demented butchery their ideology creates rather than admit error they retreat to that old lie.

I’ve heard the “real communism” garbage before too. Of course, when such people have abolition of family, religion and private property thrown at them, never mind Lenin’s statement about hatred being “the basis of communism”, they are thrown into paroxysms trying to explain any of it.

Even the world’s pre-eminent Sunni institution, Cairo’s Al-Azhar, has refused to declare ISIS apostate – on the grounds that its fighters are “believers” in Islam, however misguided or “false” their interpretation of the faith may be.

It would be nice if this were sourced.

It doesn’t matter how “misguided” al-Azhar thinks Daesh is, our response to their threat doctrine should reflect their beliefs as they practice them, instead of denying their doctrinal purity.
