AMERICAN MENTORS: The L in ISIL

Informações:

Synopsis

President Obama has talked at length about his administration’s plans to counter terrorism.  For some reason, some media folks continue to refer to the terrorist group as ISIS, even after the president’s reference to ISIL.  A significant difference between ISIS and ISIL can be gleaned from your understanding of geographical influences on world history, particularly from an historically disadvantaged point of view.  If the S in ISIS stands for Syria, is it logical that the L in ISIL would define the threat beyond Syria's border?  A term Levantine that originally referred to European residents of the eastern Mediterranean region, later came to refer to regional native and minority groups.   Tune in for insights on  the majority and the minority.
