Interesting reading. You probably know this already, but I didn’t know the difference between ISIL and ISIS. There is significance of Obama, and his administration, using the term ISIL, when nearly the whole world is using the term ISIS or IS. The letter L in ISIL refers to the Levant. What is the Levant? Just as the word Orient identifies a specific region in the Far East, the word Levant identifies a specific territory in the eastern Mediterranean. Israel, Lebanon, part of Syria, and western Jordan presently occupy the land, which is encompassed by the term Levant. The Levant is considered by Moslems to be key territory belonging to their caliphate. The southern part of Levant, during biblical times was referred to as Canaan. Using ISIL, rather than ISIS, conveys a message to Moslems that Israel is not considered separate or exempt from Islamic ownership, now or in the future. To use the term ISIL is a specific act of insult against YHVH, against His word, and against His people. ISIS refers to an Islamic State, but ISIL gives that state credibility, right, and boundaries….boundaries that cease Israel as a nation in YHVH’s territory. Every time I hear Obama, or his administration use the term ISIL, I shout, NO! in my spirit. Someone needs to educate the media, and the citizens to stop using this term. Clearly, Mr. Obama knows quite well what he is saying, because he does not veer from using the term, even when reporters speaking with him use ISIS. It is a message, that I’m sure, Benjamin Netanyahu is hearing very clearly.
