AP•IG Iain Dale was shocked by the pro-ISIS caller to his LBC show

The caller, referred to only as Khan, claimed the West was "just as evil as ISIS" and referred to the depraved jihadis simply as "freedom fighters". His sickening diatribe went on to shower the barbaric group with praise, with the man telling LBC radio's Iain Dale: "I hope they win and establish an Islamic State in Afghanistan and in Iraq because, you know, they deserve this."

He said international condemnation of the torture and slaughter of innocent civilians at the hands of ISIS was merely evidence that the UK was "demonising" militants. In a three-minute hate-filled diatribe, Khan said: "I'd love to [take my family to join ISIS] if you didn't brand me a terrorist. " ***SCROLL DOWN TO LISTEN TO THE AUDIO CLIP***

Challenged on how he could defend the twisted terror network's brutal public executions of gay people and the use of young women as sex slaves, he answered: "There's a lot of propaganda, a lot of demonising propaganda. "It's easily done by the West, it just demonises people."

Asked if he would call them terrorists, the caller responded: "I would call them mujahideen, freedom fighters, same as the Taliban." He went on to blame the West for turning the Taliban - which banned television, music and cinema and girls over the age of 10 from going to school - into terrorists.

He accused the US and Britain of carrying out genocide in the Middle East, claiming the West was responsible for killing "a lot more Muslims in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria than ISIS ever have". His outrageous remarks sparked a flurry of angry comments from listeners on the LBC website, with many urging him to follow through on his threat to flee the country.

One Jane Robbins Hancox, wrote: "Khan..go, go and never come back." Another, Rahman Musa, said: "I don't believe this caller is genuine he is so incredibly stupid that he probably trips over his shoe laces on a regular basis."
