"ISIL stands for Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant. The Levant is the historic name given to the entire region east of the Mediterranean from Egypt, east to Iran and to Turkey. U.S. officials use ISIL instead of ISIS to emphasize the group's goal to expand its influence beyond the borders of Syria and Iraq."
Notice the bolded part.
This is the goal of Obama, Clinton et also, so ISIL is used to show the commitment to promote ISIS/ISIL involvement by the current America/Israel hating politicians running this country.
"The term is also occasionally employed to refer to modern events, peoples, states or parts of states in the same region, namely Cyprus, Egypt, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, and Turkey are sometimes considered Levant countries (compare with Near East, Middle East, Eastern Mediterranean and Western ..."

Obama and Clinton had a hand in creating ISIS/ISIL.
As well as Hamas, Hezbollah and numerous other Islamic terrorist organizations.
More importantly is that the Muslim Brotherhood (high ranking members Valerie Jarrett, Huma and several Islamic muslims in the Obama administration and in his DHS) is the granddaddy of the mentioned terrorist organizations.
Let us not forget the last few years when Obams ecstatically worked hard to establish the MB as the ruling entity in many Mid Eastern Islamic states that were in turmoil.
His excuse was that the people were oppressed and needed change.
Now all of these regions are much worse off than before Obama started diddling with them. Mission accomplished for Obama and crew.
Remember also that Valerie Jarrett is Obama's main top advisor, his puppet master.
To throw a little Biblical history in here take a look at who that land really belongs to:
Question: "What is the land that God promised to Israel?"Look at the entities that occupy land that God, through a covenant to the Israelis (God NEVER goes back on His covenants)
Answer: In regards to the land that God has promised Israel, Genesis 15:18 declares to Abraham, “To your descendants I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates.” God later confirms this promise to Abraham’s son Isaac and Isaac’s son Jacob (whose name was later changed to Israel). When the Israelites were about to invade the Promised Land, God reiterated the land promise, as recorded in Joshua 1:4, “Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates—all the Hittite country—to the Great Sea on the west.”
According to Genesis 15:18 and Joshua 1:4, the land God gave to Israel included everything from the Nile River in Egypt to Lebanon (south to north) and everything from the Mediterranean Sea to the Euphrates River (west to east). So, what land has God stated belongs to Israel? All of the land modern Israel currently possesses, plus all of the land of the Palestinians (the West Bank and Gaza), plus some of Egypt and Syria, plus all of Jordan, plus some of Saudi Arabia and Iraq. Israel currently possesses only a fraction of the land God has promised.
There is going to be HELL to pay in the not to distant future. There will be a massive war with many nations going against Israel in which Israel (God) will be victorious. Blood will flow and flow.
