It has been the ISIL's plan to far outreach Al Qaeda and establish a world Calhpihate.
They claim to "fight to succeed where Zawahiri and his Al Qaeda is currently failing at".
That's the propaganda they are pitching sure. But given that their methods seem to be simply conventional warfare we know full well they know full well that it's an impossible goal. Maybe we should just give them some land to play in and satisfy their lust for blood and than bomb them back to those borders if they try and expand further.
I think this ignores the situation on the ground, while ISIS is taking a lot of notice, it is clear by the rapid advance, that there is broad sunni support for an autonomous or independent state, and that they are only aligned with ISIS as long as their goals coincide.
