據AFP27日文。原題：伊斯蘭國給了台灣不想要的承認。(後附原文，妙趣橫生）略譯如下:
奧巴馬在APEC會議上聲稱台灣是華盛頓的“親密反恐夥伴”之後，周三，台灣旗幟與星條旗一同出現在伊斯蘭國的宣傳視頻中。台灣目前隻有22個邦交國。自從1971年被大陸取代了其在聯合國的位子，台灣確實一直在尋求江湖大佬們的承認，但伊斯蘭聖戰份子似乎不算大佬。
郝伯村老爺爺對奧8的“親密反恐夥伴”之論很不買賬，周五通過美國媒體嗆聲道：“俺都不想罵你！講這話你過腦子沒？事先有跟俺們商量沒？”
Taipei (AFP) - The Islamic State has given an unwanted nod to Taiwan's four-decade struggle for international recognition, displaying the island's flag and naming it as part of the "enemy coalition" fighting the group.
Provoking anger and amusement, the Taiwanese flag appeared alongside the Star-Spangled Banner in an IS propaganda video released Wednesday after US President Barack Obama on Sunday listed Taiwan as one of Washington's "close counterterrorism partners" in Asia-Pacific.
Taiwan has never formally declared independence from China since their acrimonious split in 1949 at the end of the Chinese civil war and has official diplomatic ties with just 22 states.
The island normally takes every opportunity to seek powerful partners following the loss of its United Nations seat to China in 1971, but the jihadist group may not have been top of its list.
Former Taiwanese premier Hau Pei-tsun said Taiwan had not involved itself in conflicts where the United States has played a historical role, in a United Daily News column Friday, and questioned the US decision.
"I won't comment on Obama's assertions, but to include Taiwan wasn't a well considered issue. Was our government consulted beforehand?" he wrote.
Although Taiwan is a self-ruling democracy with a fierce sense of its own identity, China sees it as a renegade province to be reunified with the mainland, by force if necessary.
Some on social media were angry at being named by Obama, while others joked that IS supported Taiwan independence.
"Shouldn't China go and complain to ISIS to remove the ROC (Republic of China) flag?" one commenter said on PTT, one of Taiwan's biggest online discussion forums. The ROC is the name used by Taiwan for itself, and is not recognised by Beijing.
"Is China going to attack this pro Taiwan-independence group?" said another.
Taiwan's cabinet has increased security measures in response to the IS video.
"We are an open society with freedom of expression, and a democratic nation respectful of religious and ethnic pluralism, so we face lower risk of threats caused by specific ideologies," it said in a statement Wednesday.
Taiwan's foreign ministry said that Taiwan cooperates with the US and international groups through providing humanitarian aid.
