Washington Times: Bill Clinton: Islamic State ‘most interesting’ NGO today
Former President Bill Clinton said Tuesday that the Islamic State terror group is “arguably the most interesting” non-governmental organization today.
Mr. Clinton made the comments about the group, also known as ISIS or ISIL, during the third of a four-speech lecture series he is giving at Georgetown University.
“Arguably the most interesting non-governmental organization today, which proves the importance of inclusion by its shortcomings, but is formidable, is ISIS,” he said. “ISIS is a terrorist organization, an NGO, trying to become a state. That is, they don’t recognize any of the boundaries of the Middle Eastern countries as legitimate. They were all established, drawn largely by Westerners after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire in World War I.
