Another reason that has been offered for not referring to “Islamic radicalism" or the “Islamic State" is that to do so concedes the terrorists' claims that they are acting in accordance with Islam's teachings. That might draw others, who regard themselves as pious Muslims, to join them.
没有出现“伊斯兰极端主义”或“伊斯兰国”的另一个原因是上述说法等于承认恐怖分子的宣传，即他们的所作所为符合伊斯兰教教义。那样可能吸引其他自诩为虔诚的穆斯林加入到恐怖主义队伍。
