Re: "What's in a name?"

Truth in labeling, one would hope....

(For example, it would be a lot more accurate to call these folks Islamic fundamentalists, which most are. On the other hand some of the insurgents, no doubt, may not truly be deeply religious 'Islamicists' at all... simply opportunistic politicos on the make, or corrupt blood-thirsty Authoritarians, etc. But 'fascists' ['Corporatists'] they definitely ain't. Just as these deeply religious nut-job Theocracy-lovers ain't 'Communists' either. LOL!)

Why does this matter? Well... remember Sun Tsu: "To defeat your enemy, first you must know your enemy." Religious fundamentalism and hatred (particularly of the Islamic variety... but I'd argue, in truth, of ALL varieties) is the REAL enemy here that must be combatted and defeated. Not 'fascism'. :-)

Re: "agree with us or we kill you"... what would you call that?

A threat. Why do you ask?
