    They have all got one thing in common. They don't give a rats arse about human life at all.

    All different names for the same group.

    IS: Islamic State
    ISIS: Islamic State of Iraq and Syria
    ISIL: Islamic State of Iraq and the Lavant.

    The Levant is a a region, technically its not spelling nazism, the or a lavant is something else.
    I thought they were the same group originally, now? I dont know, I began to suspect they were disparate groups, like Al Qaeda was/is.
    I think it's Al Qaeda 3.0, new enemies, because nothing says worse than the previously worse guys, which by the by, we armed also, but who we are now distancing ourselves from discreetly because they gone all crazy.

    I just found this on google, I didnt look for long, so maybe someone else can find something newer and more relevant.

    Thanks. It mentions the Islamic Front (IF I presume).
    So how are IF, IS, ISIS, and ISIL related to the People's Front of Judea ?

    When they send out correspondence, what title do they put on their (be-)headed letters?
