ISIL very different from al Qaeda - The Atlantic

1. There are differences

Al-Baghdadi announcing himself "leader of all Muslims" is a major point of contention between them & Al-Qaeda but share the same Wahabbi ideology. They're more alike than they're different. The goals are very different, IS main objective is to overthrow a government in a Muslim majority country which is what the original Wahabbis did -- Saudi Arabia.

4. I suggest that we start calling them "Dyslamic Terrorists"

DS instead of IS.

Kind of has a ring to it and is equally accurate if not more so.
