@Freedland @JonKneeGlass IS is merely a symptom of Islamism. It's like arguing Nazis are the problem, and not fighting anti-Semitism

@MaajidNawaz @JonKneeGlass I'd say problem is violent jihadism of which IS is currently the world's leading exponent

Thanks @Freedland for making that important distinction. @MaajidNawaz @JonKneeGlass

@AzadehMoaveni @Freedland @MaajidNawaz @JonKneeGlass Pls learn difference between Islamism & Jihadism. ISIS not Islamist. It's Jihadist.

@rezaaslan Did I imply anything different? Or are we agreeing?! @AzadehMoaveni @MaajidNawaz @JonKneeGlass

@Freedland @AzadehMoaveni @MaajidNawaz @JonKneeGlass You did not. Maajid did. It's his error I'm correcting.

@rezaaslan @Freedland @AzadehMoaveni @JonKneeGlass sorry, what error? Nobody brought Hamas into this but you, Reza.

@MaajidNawaz @Freedland @AzadehMoaveni The error of constantly referring to jihadists as islamists. that error.
