I have never heard any of the republicans in the House or the Senate using the term ISIL, other than besides that arrogant pos occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, his administration and the rat members in the House and the Senate.

Sen. Ace McCain:
“President Obama’s decision to completely withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq in 2011 led to the rise of ISIL. I and others have long warned that the failure of the president’s policy to deny ISIL safe haven would allow the terrorist organization to inspire, plan, direct or conduct attacks on the United States and Europe as they have done in Paris, Brussels, San Bernardino and now Orlando.”
(Note that this was after he’d been instructed to revise his earlier statement that used “ISIS”)

Sen. Mitch McConnell:
If our aim is to degrade and destroy ISIL, as the president has said, then that’s going to require smart policies and firm determination. At a minimum, we shouldn’t be doing anything to make the situation worse.

Sen. Lindsey Graham:
“Here’s what I’ve said, I intend to destroy ISIL. They want three things: they want to purify the Islamic faith and take it back to the 1100s, they want to destroy the state of Israel the attack infidels like up. Al Baghdadi said to the American colonel who turned him over to the Iraqis after he was in an American POW camp in Iraq, “I’ll see you in New York.”
President Obama said he will degrade and destroy ISIL. Sending 50 American Special Forces into Syria in the eyes of ISIL shows that Obama is not all in, it is a sign of weakness to ISIL. They have sized Obama up and they think he’s weak.
And to our allies, sending 50 troops means that we’re not committed to destroying ISIL. And if we’re not committed to destroying ISIL, they will attack us here.
So, this is a failure on all fronts. These 50 American special operators are going to go in into a very bad spot with no chance of winning, and at the end of the day, this will not destroy ISIL. This is an increment change. It has not chance to success.”
Rep. Paul Ryan
