Our Secretary of State - tough guy John Kerry - calls ISIS “Daesh,” which is the Arabic acronym.

Apparently, Daesh is kind of a local insult and pun that means “one who sows discord.”

Apparently, ISIS flogs people, or even cuts out the tongue of people, who use the word “Daesh.”

The Levant is almost precisely coterminous with the area described in the Bible as the Promised Land (for Israel).

No one other than 0bama and John Brennan use this term.

Jeh Johnson uses it as well. And oh yeah, all three are Muslims. Just a coincidence, I'm sure.

As I suspect someone has told you by now, the Levant includes the Holy Land, so the Three Muzzieteers mentioned above are essentially saying that the caliphate includes ....Israel.

Only a few years after 9/11 and the 3 most powerful positions in the U.S. gov't are occupied by jihadis. The situation is way beyond insane..

Sorry, this organization dates all the way back to 1999 in Jordan. They have changed names several times and were affiliated with al Qaeda for a few years. They broke with them and now compete with them and for the role of Sunni Jihad leader.

Neither Obama, Bush, or any other American politician had anything to do with creating them.

From my understanding, ISIL is a direct slam to Israel...that’s why he says it that way...

It’s coded messaging for Levant (Israel).
The dictator in the White Hut thinks the IS should included Israel.

To me his constantly saying ISIL is a code to the Palestinians that he supports their mission to eliminate the State of Israel. Just like his old 57 states in the USA “gaffe”, he knows how many states there are. It was a wink wink nod nod to his Islamic buddies referring to 57 Islamic States. “I’m not forgetting who put me behind the wheel of this new Caddy”...bow, bow, Allah Akbar. :(

It’s a very simple distinction ....ISIS is a movement, ISIL is a caliphate and sovereign nation......
By calling the organization ISIL, Obama conveys a level of respect and distinction to these scumbags....

ISIS means Islamic State of Syria and Iraq.

ISIL means Islamic State of Syria and The Levant which includes Syria, Iraq, Israel, Jordan,Lebanon, the Sinai , ect. In other words, Obama, the proud father of ISIS , has much more ambitious goals for his his young child

ISIS = Islamic State in Iraq and al Sham.

The Sham is an old Arabic name for the Levant area. The Islamic State guys, like the Muslim Brotherhood and the State religion of Saudi Arabia, all consider themselves as salafis - philosophical throwbacks to the early days of Islam. They love to use the old archaic terms from medieval times, like al Sham for the Levant, and Khorasan for the Afghanistan area.

All of his lackeys say ISIL. Comey used that version the other day.

Ironically, the killer in Orlando used the version ISIS.

The Levant is an historic name for the lands to the east of the Mediterranean--from the French word meaning the rising of the sun. So there is nothing inherently sinister in the term, but it's possible Obama does use it because he hopes that all the lands to the east of the Mediterranean (including Israel, Jordan, and Lebanon) will become part of the new caliphate. Or he could just be trying to show that he is more brilliant than anyone else.

And when Rush broke to commercial, he was asked, why does Obama use ISIL. Rush: “Out of respect?” They are all getting very close to calling Obama a Muslim. Rush actually today gave a little education on Islam...including Bayat.

The first person to allude to Obama being affiliated with the Islamic Death Cult happened to be Obama himself - to George Stephanopoulous on TWWGS - I seen it myself.

U S politicians helped create this monster.

And obama is currently trying to get as many of them into this country as he can while he still has time.

Edward Snowden had access to a few files.

Obama has access to EVERYTHING. And he is using that against us. It will only get worse when he leaves office.
