I'm still not convinced that you can explain your position beyond what I asserted. My position is simple: both ISIS and PDF are violent, reactionary rebel gangs with delusions of grandeur but no real strategy for improving the lives of the people. Evidently, both are partly orchestrated/supported by foreign states. They exist solely to cause chaos in regions faraway from their sponsors. For example, note that ISIS happens to ignore Western partner countries like Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey, while focusing on Western enemy states. Note that the US Government openly assassinated Iranian General Soleimani, who's claim to fame was defeating ISIS. Note that US state media aired a puff piece of ISIS/AQ affiliate al-Jolani ("The Jihadist"), attempting to drum up public support for the new face of "ISIS". And so on and so forth.
