Afghanistan, a taliban leader basically issued a letter asking them to back off. I think isis realizes it cannot replace the taliban as a major fighting force in afghanistan right now.

And this we know now, isis holds more territory than the territorial expanse of the united kingdom. It is a graduate threat. More importantly, what we dont talk about, it is the worlds first transnational insurgency. Not Just International all insurgencies are to a lesser or greater ex
