| The appearance of these Islamic State (ISIS) fighters contrast with stereotypes of Muslim fundamentalists. ISIS seems to be a well organized militia, since its fighters seem to be well uniformed according to these pictorial sources. ISIS is even equipped with tanks (something unexpected in non-state groups) captured from the Iraqi army. ISIS seems to have the resources to equip its fighters with uniforms. |
 |
| ISIS militants seem to be well funded and organized enough to capture substantiate territory in both Iraq and Syria, while with most non-state groups have hardly the capabilities to even hold small amounts of territory. |
 |
| ISIS contrasts strongly against ULIMO-J's loosely uniformed and organized "army". The Islamic State is so well organized that it is virtually a proto-country. |
