There are 7.3 million Bahá'ís around the globe and those in war torn Syria and Iraq consider ISIS to be the infidels of Islam.
And then we have Sufis- Mevlevi- Naqshbandi- Bektashi- Chisti and others which have a lot more in common with Shiism and will therefore fight with the Shia against everything ISIS stands for.
You have to understand that ISIS are not a state representative of Islam before you can understand that a suggestion of 400 million ISIS extremists scattered around the globe have been pulled right out of a magicians hat.

ISIS is supported by a significant number of muslims across the globe, that is a fact. I don't understand why you would want to fudge the issue or downgrade it.
