Philippines has had a Muslim separatist conflict for decades. The main antagonists have rather an amusing acronym for their name: Moro Islamic Liberation Front, or MILF. But there's nothing amusing about their methods.

Seems like ISIS getting in to the game is a pretty big deal in terms of escalating the Muslim separatist efforts.

Duterte could have strong-manned the MILF if they remained isolated from the global terror network. But ISIS coming in to support the MILF (presumably) might make things a bit more challenging for Duterte.

If the situation is the same as here I wouldn't worry about it too much. Taliban Pakistan was loosing so they started acting like they have joined Daesh cause Daesh is the new hip terrorist scum organization. But real links between the Syrian Daesh and Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan is yet to be made. Those scum still get away with some attacks but thankfully the frequency and magnitude have greatly reduced over the last two years
