No IS/ISIS/ISIL! It's Daesh!

[Neser Boha]

This is the only thing all of us on this message board agree on ... these fuckers must go, so let's call them something more deserved ...

Taken from the bostonglobe.com article:

"The term “Daesh” is strategically a better choice because it is still accurate in that it spells out the acronym of the group’s full Arabic name, al-Dawla al-Islamiya fi al-Iraq wa al-Sham. Yet, at the same time, “Daesh” can also be understood as a play on words — and an insult. Depending on how it is conjugated in Arabic, it can mean anything from “to trample down and crush” to “a bigot who imposes his view on others.” Already, the group has reportedly threatened to cut out the tongues of anyone who uses the term."

Words matter in ‘ISIS’ war, so use ‘Daesh’ - The Boston Globe

The mentality is what must go, along with religion.
