Wikipedia: Jihadism
Jihadism (also jihadist movement, jihadi movement and variants) is a 21st-century neologism found in the Western languages to describe Islamist militant movements perceived as a military movement “rooted in Islam” and “existentially threatening” to the West. The term “jihadism” was coined in the 2000s and mostly used to cover Islamic insurgency and Islamic terrorism since that time, but it has also been extended to cover both Mujahideen guerilla warfare and Islamic terrorism with an international scope since it arose in the 1980s, since the 1990s substantially represented by the al-Qaeda network.

‘Y’all Qaeda’: People aren’t taking the armed militia in Oregon too seriously
By Brian Ries
January 4, 2016
What do you call cowboy hat-wearing militiamen who have taken over a federal building while criticizing the federal government with a deep southern drawl?
They might call themselves defenders of “the people.” But to most of Twitter, they’re “Y’all Qaeda,” “Vanilla ISIS,” “Yee Hawdists,” “Yokel Haram,” “Talibundy” and “Meal Team Six” — all plays on real-life jihadist terminology.
Social media exploded late Sunday night with widespread mockery of the armed group, which is led by Ammon Bundy, the flannel-cloaked 40-year-old son of rancher Cliven Bundy, who once sparred with the federal government over grazing rights — and won.
