Dem Rep. Gabbard to Obama: There’s No Difference Between ISIS and Boko Haram

‘The danger of calling it an “organization” misses the point that this isn’t about one specific group’

"The danger of calling it an organization misses the point, that this isn't about one specific group and until we recognize that it is this radical Islamic ideology that's fueling this, the name of the group change, the tactics may change based on a different geographic location, or based on what's happening on the ground. Again, we  see this because we have ISIS, we have al Qaeda, we have Boko Haram and other various groups especially in the Middle East, but people who are operating around the world each of them have the one commonality of being fueled by this radical Islamic ideology. So we can't say well this is about one organization only because if we do that then there's no way we can defeat this enemy and defeat this ideology, both militarily and ideologically."
