Islam utterly fails the logic test. Obama thinks he can support Islam and stay safe. He is a narcissist.

“That’s a stretch.”

I agree. Probably why they chose ISIL and not ISIS.

Here is the best explanation I have seen to date:

According to the article you linked, the most accurate name is ISIS, interpreting al-Sham to mean Syria. Those, like Obama, who want al-Sham to mean the Levant, which includes Israel, call the group ISIL, even though the group itself does not use that name. That decision to call them ISIL is, therefore, a conscious decision to include Israel. Even ISIS has "moved on" to the preposterous "Islamic State".

This is all good news, in my book. Obama is exposed as the Islamist he is, and ISIS makes itself the poster boy for Islamic ethics around the world. Keep it up, boys.

No. The most accurate name THEY call themselves is IS.

So, it’s the contention of some here that Obama is rooting for ISIS. Some say he is willing to sacrifice himself and his family. Others think that Obama is such a narcissist that he believes he and his will be safe.

Politicians are possibly the most self-absorbed people around. They are all about wealth, fame, and power.

Obama is a creepy and inefficient leader, but some of you come across as paranoid. I have no doubt that if someone here posted an article that Obama was sent here by an evil cadre of Martians, some of you would believe it.

Obama. Is terrible, but the notion of rooting for the team that wants to kill your children is just crazy, in my opinion.

With apologies to George Gershwin: "Let's Call The Whole Thing Off"

Things have come to a pretty impasse
Our war is on terror is growing flat,
For you fund this one
While I fund for the other this and that,

Goodness knows what the end will be
Oh I don't know where I'm at It looks as if we two will never be one
Something must be done:

You say ISIL and I say ISIS,
You say Al Qaeda and I say Al-Qaida
ISIL, ISIS, Al Qaeda, Al-Qaida
Let's (save time) and just lop our own heads off.
