Why This American 'Soldier of Christ' Is Fighting ISIS in Iraq -- ABC

33. "Obama's worldview on this IS to NOT portray the conflict as between religions."

I'm not even sure you're accurately portraying Obama's view. The President has been quite clear that he does not see ISIS as representative of Islam and I am prepared to agree with him on that score.

It's your characterization of his view as the sole representation of reality that I found ironic. Perhaps your wording is poorly chosen but that is how it reads.

If ISIS calls it a religious war then acknowledging their verbiage is not to "agreeing" with them, it is acknowledging their verbiage, and nothing more. Some debate whether or not ISIS operates within the teachings of Islam. All I know is that there are plenty of Muslims who reject ISIS and there are piles of dead bodies to that affect. However, unless ISIS and their genocidal ambitions are stopped they will become the sole voice of Islam by default.
