Sorry, did you read the article? ISIS is using neither term. The term they use refers either way to Israel, Jordan, etc.
The term “Syria,” as a geographical expression, till the last century, included Israel, Jordan and so forth. IOW, it meant pretty much the same thing as the Levant, though both terms are pretty vague as to boundaries.
Oh? Are we supposed to read the article. LOL. Got me there.
I am familiar with the term Levant and i think the hero of Benghazi’s use of the term is supporting the destruction of Israel and a couple of arab countries for that matter.
Presidents choose words with certain meaning.
Terrorists have had their eye on Jordan ever since the king died.
