In recent weeks, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott has started referring to the Islamic State terrorist organisation by a name they reportedly despise — Daesh.
Australia’s allies in the Middle East have suggested the Western world not use monikers such as ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant), ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria), or IS (Islamic State) as they legitimise the group’s aspirations.
“Daesh hates being referred to by this term, and what they don’t like has an instinctive appeal to me,” Abbott said.
“I absolutely refuse to refer to it by the title that it claims for itself [Islamic State], because I think this is a perversion of religion and a travesty of governance.”
US Secretary of State John Kerry has also started referring to the group by the name, as have US military leaders.
Daesh comes from the acronym formed by the Arabic spelling of the terror group’s name — al-Dawla al-Islamiya fi Iraq wa al-Sham.
Joseph Bahout, a visiting scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, told The Huffington Post that the word Daesh in Arabic “sounds like something monstrous” and is a way of “stigmatising” the group.
One theory suggests the group hates the name as it was reportedly first used by supporters of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, the Herald Sun reported.
The terrorist organisation’s leaders have threatened to “cut out the tongues” of those who refer to them as Daesh, or DAIISH, according to international media reports.
The news follows Abbott’s first visit to Baghdad and Iraq to meet with Iraqi prime minister Haider al-Abadi to discuss military collaboration between the two nations.

We can then call the members of the organization “DAIISH-holes”
They can Daesh it out but they can’t take it!..................
Daesh it is.
Hey—Anything that gets them mad flushes them out. Then they’re easy to pick-off.
Muslims, Islamists, Mohammedans, A$$-holes..
A goathumper is a goathumper is a goathumper.
All the same diff.
Call the members of Bammy’s Caliphate.
I thought it was La-a?
Ladasha, because the dash don’t be silent)
So members of Daesh are Daeshites...
I propose that all FReepers use the term Daesh, anytime we’re not quoting other sources.
For instance, my new tagline.
If it is about calling them names that they despise, use pig sodomizers.
Otherwise, use Islamic State since their supporters around the world use their “state” flag in solidarity.
Carnegie Endowment for International Peace = globalism.
John Kerry = globalist minion.
Most Australian politicians = globalist minions. Really idiotic minions at that. Anything their UK/US masters say, they say “me too” in an Australian accent.
No thanks.
Islamic “terrorism” is founded and funded by globalist elites on behalf of globalist elites.
God help the Australian people. Same for all of us sheeple, really.
I’ve forgotten what it was like to have a president with cajones.
The problem is “Daesh” also covers up the religious connection, which “Islamic State” does not. It is easier for world leaders to deny the islamic connection when they use the term.
Call them GHOST, Goat Humpers On Syrian Territory.
Somehow, calling them names while they slaughter people left and right doesn’t impress me. I doubt the guys wielding the axe and rocket launcher is particularly impressed either.
Good Point!
And notice how he hedges with this part of the statement;
“I absolutely refuse to refer to it by the title that it claims for itself [Islamic State], because I think this is a perversion of religion
A perversion of religion.?
They are following their religion as written, you naive infidel politician. -Tom
