WH: 'We Are At War' With ISIS -- The Hill
The United States is at war with the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS or ISIL), the White House and Pentagon said Friday, a day after Secretary of State John Kerry repeatedly declined to use that phrase.
“In the same way that we are at war with Al Qaeda and its affiliates around the globe, we are at war with ISIL,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters at the White House.
Pentagon spokesman John Kirby echoed that sentiment, telling reporters that while the effort was "not the Iraq war," they should "make no mistake, we know we are at war with ISIL."

My Comment: Like pornography .... I know a war when I see it. In this case .... it is obvious that we are at war with The Islamic State, and the Islamic State has also made it very clear that they are at war with us. But for some reason .... that I must confess I find incomprehensible .... U.S. Secretary Of State John Kerry has a different point of view.
