Regarding president obama should he be labeled correctly that he is not calling the terrorists islamic terrorist . I like what seth myers said about this. This is and hogwarts and president obama is not harry potter. Calling it islamic terrorism doesnt make it go away. The president s argument is isis sees itself as representation of all muslims which is absurd and by calling them islamic terrorists we are just feeding that isis narrative.
