President Obama sparked controversy at the National Prayer Breakfast by comparing the atrocities of ISIS to the Crusades and the Inquisition. The hosts analyze the speech and a subsequent discussion by Fareed Zakaria, who argued that ISIS represents a civil war within Islam. They suggest the President's rhetoric is intended to frame the conflict as an internal religious issue that must be solved by regional actors like Jordan.

Adam Curry highlights a specific moment from the National Prayer Breakfast where President Obama used the phrase "our religion" while discussing the distortion of faith by extremists. Curry argues this was a significant slip of the tongue indicating the President's personal identification with Islam, despite his immediate correction to "any religion." The hosts express surprise that mainstream media outlets did not focus on this phrasing.
