They got one thing right -- that's definitely not Arabic.
CNN devoted a segment to a purported ISIS flag that was spotted by correspondent Lucy Pawle (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5y6qTLf0AI4&feature=youtu.be)in London during the city's gay pride celebrations Saturday.
“If you look at the flag closely, it’s clearly not Arabic,” Pawle said. “In fact, it looks like it could be gobbledegook. But it’s very distinctively the ISIS flag.”
That "gobbledegook" appears to be a an assortment of butt plugs, dildos and other sex toys arranged to look like the ISIS flag. Pawle went on to cast suspicion on a man dressed in black at the festivities, who she said was displaying the flag.
"I seem to be the only person who has spotted this, and nobody seems to be raising any questions or pointing it out," she said.

CNN removed video of the segment from its website (http://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2015/06/27/isis-flag-gay-pride-parade-london.cnn) Saturday afternoon.
