ISIS-K, for people asking. I am digging at this one a bit, trying to get a better picture because I lost touch with what's going on in Afghanistan after about 2012. Wikipedia is shit, but its as good a place to start as any.
I think Islamic State, (IS), is a deepstate upgrade of their command and control system over muslims. Omar was building a Caliphate organically. The DS decided that was a great idea, but wanted it to be their Caliphate and their Caliph.
