That was 2003 bro. They probably converted to Islam and started to make an Islamic Khanate.
Here's my impression of Forma: "nothing can ever be described and nothing can ever be known therefore America is evil"
The Vietnamese had different visions on how to run things, but they both wanted to be on top. ISIL can't prosper, but they want to take as many people down with them as possible *sigh*Except these lunatics are nothing like the Vietnamese communists and nationalists, who were fighting to reunite their country. They're carving out a conservative terror state so terrifying that Iranians and Iraqis are uniting to stop them, and now the Americans are considering action as well.
Really? The Soviet Union was one of the most devastated places, the Balkans suffered quite a lot and look at how things have turned out.The Middle East has not experienced the true low yet. Only when they suffer as much destruction as Europe did in World War 2 will they ever stop fighting each other and look towards cooperation.

Again, what they really want is to be in power instead of the Shia. They were quite happy living under Saddam Hussein's secular government because the Sunni were in control.
As opposed to the Jewish state of Israel?
What exactly is a group which apparently consists of 10,000 people going to do to negatively influence such a large area?
They want Theocracy, Israel in nowhere near to Theocracy (to be honest, most of the coalition is secular, and the leader of the greatest party after the ruling party is almost a complete Atheist!).They all supposedly want a government which is not secular, just like your own. There isn't anything inherently wrong with a non-secular government. Now is there?
And you just claimed that Israel and the rest of the region was being threatened by this group of 10,000 supposed fanatics!

Really? Has Israel started enforcing religious dress codes or legally begun Torah based penalties?Israel is clearly just as much of a theocracy as Iran is. Iran also has a large group which is just as secular. There are a number of countries which are predominately Catholic as well and are just as theocratic. If the majority of the people want to live in a theocracy who are we to tell them they can't do so?
Israel does far more to destabilize the entire region than a handful of supposed Muslim fanatics, even though I have yet to see any proclamations by ISIS that they wish to kill infidels or any such thing. Have you?
After all, Sharia law is now practiced in much of the US and Europe without anything terrible occurring. It is really no different than Jewish halakha or Christian canon law except for the draconian and backward parts still practiced by a handful of countries.

Why do you think the opposing Sunnis even apparently gave those weapons to the Sunni invaders and just walked away? Do you think it might possibly be that the Sunnis wish to live under Sunni control instead of Shia? That they have been trying to do so ever since the US illegally invaded and occupied their country on the basis of lies and deceit?10,000 can do quite a bit when the opposing forces throw down their arms and retreat when challenged. And your attempt to bring Israel in as a non-secular exam is just an incredibly weird stretch. When Israel starts trying to legally enforce the ultra-orthodox viewpoint that might be a point that classifies as something other than laughable.
