Small difference, ISIS are the most disgusting animals/people on the planet, the most extreme militant muslims in a world full of extremist muslims.

The muslims who left Australia to go join ISIS were looking forward to gang raping children, beheading anyone who doesn't join islam and committing an actual genocide:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yazidi_genocide

Over a period of three years, Islamic State militants trafficked thousands of Yazidi women and girls and killed thousands of Yazidi men;[14] the United Nations reported that the Islamic State killed about 5,000 Yazidis[5] and trafficked about 10,800 Yazidi women and girls in a "forced conversion campaign"[15][16] throughout Iraq. By 2015, upwards of 71% of the global Yazidi population was displaced by the genocide, with most Yazidi refugees having fled to Iraq's Kurdistan Region and Syria's Rojava

The IDF are our allies and are fighting the people like this

She was repeatedly raped and traded between different fighters, according to the newspaper.

After being married to a 24-year-old Palestinian from Gaza. who was allegedly a member of Hamas, she was taken to the Isis stronghold of Raqqa.

You are allied with genociders? Lmao the hezbollah and iran are the one fighting ISIS. The west gave weapons to kurds and then left then to die like cowards.

Lmao the hezbollah and iran are the one fighting ISIS.

Many, many groups and states are fighting ISIS, even the Western alliances. There are thousands of reasons to criticize the zionist regime, so please avoid coming over here and posting weird claims like suggesting only Hezbollah and Iran are combating ISIS - there's no point in playing out the liberalist 'good guy'/'bad guy' fantasy and ending up with american-level exceptionalism like this. Genocide is genocide, and Hezbollah and Iran are defending themselves against the expanding genocidal zionist regime.
