Dear BBC: why are ISIS “so-called” ...

... Islamic State?? (according only to the BBC).
If the Islamic State are so-called" why not "so-called" anything?... so-called Labour Party, so-called People's Republic of China...
"So-called BBC"??
Since it's a term used by every single one of your announcers, and *ONLY* for ISIS, the rule must have come down from on high. Clearly a political decision to obfuscate the Islamic content of ISIS ideology.
Bur don't forget the ISIS leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, is an Islamic scholar. ISIS is every bit as Islamic as the local mosque. Who is the BBC to gainsay?
Why pick Islamic State as the ONLY group you label "so-called"?? You're the only so-called MSM outlet to do so.
Some of you clearer thinking BBC folk ought to push back.

Pf, etc...

LATER: Sam Harris re-ups his podcast on ISIS, What do the terrorists really want.  Good listening.
