Calling the Islamic State ISIL is legitimizing and validating. Bammy knows this is a dog whistle of support for the jihadis.
We really need to be calling those barbarians Daesh as those Muslims fighting against them do. Daesh is doing a good job of alienating the world, destroying Muslim texts in Museums, Persian statues in museums, and Christian Egyptians in Libya. And I used to think the Taliban was bad.
And Kerry does the same thing. They are pigs.
