GDDS #2: ISIS and the Middle East
ISIS poses as both a threat and an ally to other Arab countries through the use of fear and extortion; threatening violence against other nations unless the safety of their country is bought and paid for frightens the Arabs and causes them to refrain from a coalition.

I'm a bit confused by your thesis. Which states would consider ISIS an ally? At this point, there are no political bodies that recognize ISIS as an actual state. Although there may be private citizens and/or operatives who provide financial or tactical support to ISIS, these activities have been condemned by the international community. Are you only addressing the ISIS threat to Arabs? What about Iranians, Kurds, etc.? Please see me ASAP if you need help focusing your argument.
