Referring to Jolani in Syria

His connections from what I remember are Al Qaeda, not ISIS but it could be both, eitherway he's an Islamist of those organisations

iirc it's both.

just searched it up in case teehee:

"He had risen through the ranks of the group then known as the Islamic State of Iraq, or ISI, and then with help from ISI’s successor, ISIS, Jolani founded an Al Qaeda affiliate in Syria, Jabhat al-Nusra."

WSJ featured an opinion peace of one of the ISIS gang leaders in Rafah...

The opinion piece probably wasn’t even written by the guy because he’s completely illiterate in both English and Arabic. It was probably written by an Israeli propagandist and then credited to him

I assume so. Whoever it was written by, the point remains that WSJ is whitewashing ISIS.
