” ISISISIL “
ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham) started in Iraq.
When they went into Syria, they needed a more inclusive of Syria name, hence ISIL, Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
Now they have declared themselves the leaders of all muslims of the world and call them simply IS, Islamic State.
I was worried it would have islam in there some place.
When it went to Syria, the Al-Shams (the sun) was added.
"Levant" is Dear Reader's way of avoiding that these are the Syrian "rebels" he was so concerned with.
As opposed to Obama, who is ISASW (Islamic State of Al Sham-Wow)
“Now they have declared themselves the leaders of all muslims of the world and call them simply IS, Islamic State.”
I guess it all depends upon what the definition of IS is.
Sorry.
