By naming it we gain insight as to the nature of the fight we face, as well as a better understanding of the resources needed to achieve victory and ultimate peace. Naming the enemy is imperative in defeating the enemy. Consistent with this history, it is strategically important that we call out this latest threat to civilization by the name which accurately indicates their identity, their motivation and their ultimate goal of establishing a world-wide caliphate under “Islamic” law. For two generations we fought Communism in the Cold War, and we did not equivocate in naming that threat. In World War II we declared war on Germany even though we knew that not all Germans supported the Nazi regime and Adolph Hitler. It is maddening and irritating to realize that we are at war with an enemy that our leaders cannot or will not name.
