Apparently France has started referring to ISIS as 'Daesh' in its communiques. They don't like it.

Finally, someone gets it. The best weapon against these jihadists is ridicule, laughter and an absolute refusal to buy into their childish worldview.

Hahaha! God bless the French!

DAESH is the group's initials, in Arabic. Probably what everyone should have been calling them to begin with.

That depends on your transliteration – in SATTS, it would be DA":

ISIS is more "catchy" for the media to use … evil grin

Thought the WH had settled on ISIL, which sounds like a medicinal cream!

What ever happened to "Freedom Fries". It wasn't so long ago that the French were the bad guys. The winds of emnity do shift about, don't they?!

AFP reports that in some parts of the Arab world, "daeshi" is being used an an adjective to refer to a bigot who imposes their views on others.

How appropriate, then…

Would someone please rub this ISIL cream on my Daesh, I can't quite reach it….
Aaahh that's the ticket.

If the Devil is a proud spirit that cannot bear to be mocked, then let's introduce ISIS to the Three Stooges.

Spread this earworm around because Disney would get litigious if we use "It's a Small World".

I think this is an excellent development. From now on I will refer to these miscreants as "Daeshbags". grin

Some amusing remarks boys ! LOL !! laugh The CIA should get some of these hackers that live in their mom's basement. And have them bombard ISIS or ISIL, etc. site(s) with spam, malware, viruses, etc. … Or send all the nude movie star pics that have been recently hacked … Worthless losers spamming more worthless losers … it's a win-win !

Ah Legion, the link between extremism and sexual frustration and deviancy, has never been exploited, alas.

Indeed … evil grin
