The Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) June 2014 formation of a transnational caliphate was an extraordinary development. Driven by a sectarian and apocalyptic ideology ISI‟s Iraqi-Syrian jihadist state presented significant regional and global security challenges. Badly damaged by Post 2006 US counter terror operations and a Sunni tribal uprising against ISI predecessor Al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI),the Islamic State of Iraq made a remarkable resurgence. After the 2011 US military withdraw, a Shia dominated government in Baghdad pursued polices repressing the Sunni minority. Its politicians were prosecuted for supporting terrorism, Sunni army officers were demoted, and Anbar based tribal militias were dismembered. 1 Sunni protests against Baghdad‟s discriminatory policies were savagely crushed. ISI was able to recover as a protector of Sunni interests.
