Huffingglue is full of shit.
The leftist rag attempts to claim ISIS is ISIL. It is not. The author is lying, as you fascists tend to do.
Now I could respond to the absurd shit from alt-left Huffingglue with an article from DailyMail or Red State, but instead I will use the fake news of the NY Times against the false narrative you Soros Brownshirts are trying to sell;

By the time the United States withdrew from its long bloody encounter with Iraq in 2011, it thought it had declawed a once fearsome enemy: the Islamic State, which had many names and incarnations but at the time was neither fearsome nor a state.
Beaten back by the American troop surge and Sunni tribal fighters, it was considered such a diminished threat that the bounty the United States put on one of its leaders had dropped from $5 million to $100,000. The group’s new chief was just 38 years old, a nearsighted cleric, not even a fighter, with little of the muscle of his predecessor,
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the godfather of Iraq’s insurgency, killed by the American military five years earlier after a relentless hunt.}

And there were, in fact, more than hints of the group’s plans and potential. A
2012 report by the United States Defense Intelligence Agency was direct: The growing chaos in Syria’s civil war was giving Islamic militants there and in Iraq the space to spread and flourish. The group, it said, could “declare an Islamic state through its union with other terrorist organizations in Iraq and Syria.”
“This particular report, this was one of those nobody wanted to see,” said Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn, who ran the defense agency at the time.
“It was disregarded by the White House,” he said. “It was disregarded by other elements in the intelligence community as a one-off report. Frankly, at the White House, it didn’t meet the narrative.”}

ISIL was a creature of Bush, and it was defeated.
ISIS is purely Obama/Clinton, which the fool ignored.
