The only problem I have with "Daesh" is that as an acronym it masks the true nature of the enemy.
They are "Islamic". Say it out loud.

The Kurds can use whatever words they want. They’re the only ones willing to fight on the ground.
And if you get your enemy angry enough for silly reasons, perhaps they make a mistake in their rage.

Did the New Republic just learn this? Calling IS Daesh to insult them is very old news.

“Daesh,†… both John Kerry and François Hollande have used it.So how did the particularly pompous putz pronounce it? Better than "Jhengis Kahn" I hope.

call them names. that'll teach them. Remember that branding is an effective technique. It is used here in the US all the time. For good and bad. The reason it is used so much is because it works.

I believe that I must speak out against Islam and not the people who are Moslems. There is a difference in loathing Islam as an erroneous doctrine and the people who practice it. Islam is a twisted idealogy. Moslems are only misguided people, slaves to a violent form of authoritarianism.
Islam is no religion. It must be banned in America as it was banned in Angola! And all mosques closed in America as they were in Angola. Then Moslems who live in America can live in freedom & peace or move to a country where Islam is legal.

Who cares what the barbarians like or don’t like to be called? They need to be eliminated.
