“And then, at the end of the show, the BBC lost their mind, [saying] ‘You need to re-record it! You need to say Isis aren’t devout Muslims.’ I was like, ‘Are you worried we are going to offend Isis?’ Are they going to write in?'â€
No, it’s clear that the BBC was not worried about offending the Islamic State (ISIS). Calling ISIS devout Muslims wouldn’t offend them. They are devout Muslims. The BBC was worried about offending the Muslims who hold to the fiction, or want British non-Muslims to hold to the fiction, that ISIS isn’t Islamic and doesn’t operate according to Islamic teachings.
