You are right. Here's a nonsense article that seems to have been published in a few outlets trying to convince us
that we should use Daesh and not ISIS, as it is more insulting to ISIS.
It says that Daesh is an acronym, and well, Arabs don't like acronyms... secondly, it means "to crush", and of course, the islamic
cavemen don't want to be identified with such a cruel sounding name. Ha

Isis. Not Daesh. How long is this failed meme going to last? It's Islam, the name Islam stays.
