This is an extremely sensitive topic so mods are free to close it as they wish. Let's say that upon ISOT they become more moderate and don't just massacre everyone whom they conquer. We ISOT all territory controlled by ISIS in Iraq and Syria in May 2015 (the height of their power) to 3000 BC. What's the outcome? ISIS at the time controls a population of several mln people and a few tens of thousands of well armed, ideologically driven fighters. I expect them to initially conquer at least all of Anatolia, modern day Iran and North Africa in a blitz. But it's interesting what comes next. Since their ammunition supplies are going to run out quite quickly, will they be able to replenish it? If not, what weapons can they produce? Will they be able to survive as a coherent singular entity? Which technologies will survive and which ones will not? What will be their legacy in 100, 200, 500 years given that their ISOTed territory has almost as many people as all of Europe at the time?

Going to close, let’s not give the people of the past the horror that is called ISIS.
