President of America, Barack Obama has finally explained why he does not ever use the word 'Islamic Terrorism' when describing deadly terrorist attacks carried out by ISIS, saying ISIS' activities affect all including Muslims and Christians.

Barack Obama has been criticized by Donald Trump and a lot of political observers for purposely refusing to refer to ISIS as Islamic terrorists, saying the United State president, barrack obama has refused to acknowledge that the terror group use Islam to defend their wicked acts.

At a CNN presidential town hall meeting today, President of America, Barack Obama was then asked to defend why he refused to say "Islamic terrorism” to a Gold Star mother.

"My son gave his life for acts of terrorism," audience member Tina Houchins told United State President at the meeting. "Do you still believe that the acts of terrorism are done for the self-proclaimed Islamic religious motive? And if you do, why do you still refuse to use the word ... Islamic terrorist?"
"There is no doubt, and I have said repeatedly, where we see terrorist organizations like al Qaeda -- They have perverted and distorted and tried to claim the mantle of Islam for an excuse for basically barbarism and death," United State President explained.

"These are people who have killed Muslims children, take sex slaves and there is no religious rational that would justify in any way any of the things that they do," he said. "But what I have been careful about when I describe these issues is to make sure that we don’t lump these murderers into the billion Muslims that exist around the world, including in this country, who are peaceful, responsible in this country, fellow troops and police officers and fire fighters and teachers, neighbors and friends. If you had an organization that was going around killing and blowing people up and said, 'We are on the vanguard of Christianity.' As a Christian, I am not going to let them claim my religion and say, 'you are killing for Christ.' I would say, that's ridiculous," Barack Obama said.

"That isn’t what my religion stands for. Call these folks what they are, which is killers and terrorists," he added.

President of America, Barack Obama then said that the danger of using the term 'Islamic Terrorism' stems from when  "a president or people aspiring to become president get loose with this language." to which CNN moderator Jake Tapper interjected saying he was referring to Donald Trump, but Barack Obama denied that was the case.

Tapper interjected:
 "You were clearly talking about the Republican nominee Donald Trump just then --"
"No, I wasn't," Barack Obama dismissed Tapper swiftly. "It is not unique to the Republican nominee. Look, I am trying to be careful, we are on a military base, I do not insert partisan politics into this. I think that there have been a number of public figures where you start hearing commentary that is dangerous. Because what it starts doing is it starts dividing us up as Americans."
