Obama clears up the name game

I finally understand. Obama won't call them "radical Islamists", he says because it's not valid as they don't represent Islam and they just want us to use that terminology to goad us into a war against an entire religion. But then he immediately calls them ISIL, which stands for the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant.
So he's calling them Islamic as well. That means it must be the "radical" part that he doesn't like. If he didn't like the "Islam" part, he wouldn't call them ISIL either.
