Some facts about ISIS that you probably did not know: 1) They never won Raqqa from the Assad regime, it was won by revolutionaries, seized by Nusra, and effectively abandoned to ISIS. They ruled like Assad, albeit with a religious flavor, and crucified (literally) revolutionary activists in good counter-revolutionary form; 2) Until recently they didnt really battle the Assad regime at all, they instead attacked rebels and sold oil to the Assad government; 3) They are not the majority of the fighters in Iraq, merely the vanguard of an uprising of people who rightly believe that ISIS is a lesser evil than the government-by-death squad established by the United States in Baghdad.
