They still insist on calling those terrorists ISIL while the media and the rest of the world considers them to be ISIS. Which is it, you decide!

It's much worse that almost everybody insists on calling them "terrorists" instead of what they are, enemy soldiers serving in the irregular forces of Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.

I prefer the term ISIl because it is more correct. The nations of Iraq and Syria no longer exist as before. There can be quibbling about the definition of Levant but it is just quibbling. The area in question is in the Levant

By using the term Levant the new de facto country is described for what it is. Neither Iraq nor Syria will ever return to the previous borders. By using the term, Obama is recognizing the fact. It is not his doing and he has no need or desire to change.

Further, neither the remaining portions of Iraq nor Syria have the ability and perhaps the desire to return to the previous borders. The current battles are about settling the borders.

The future is long ahead. Once the nation is established, the Arab nations will cleanse it of the Islamic radicals that are undesirbles

Apparently they are the media Obama said he wants all media to be.

It is a pathetic statement when the name is up for grabs, but then they never knew how to spell AQ with any consistency
