As ISIS is defeated on the Battlefield I think you are going to have more and more of these kinds of attacks around the world. Many factors contribute to this. ISIS soldiers returning home from Syria and Iraq rather than dying on the battlefield there, and ISIS being the richest terrorist organization in the history of the world and many other factors. This is going to terrorize the world much more than the Islamic State did. However, at least ISIS is not longer a country holding hostage for ransom millions and millions of people like now.

Bangladesh Café Attackers Spared Muslim Hostages
NY Daily News
A survivor’s father said the shooters gave food to the Muslim captives after they barricaded themselves inside the Holey Artisan Bakery, a café popular with diplomats and expats in the capital city of Dhaka.
“The gunmen asked everyone inside to recite from the Koran. Those who recited were spared. The gunmen even gave them meals last night,” said Rezaul Karim, whose Bangladeshi son was rescued from the besieged restaurant. “The others were tortured.”

Three American college students — two from Emory University and one from University of California Berkley — were among the 20 killed.
Italian citizens are among the victims, Italy's Prime Minister Matteo
Renzi (l.) said, while Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said one
Japanese hostage was hospitalized.
Paramilitary troops eventually raided the café early Saturday morning, about 10 hours into the standoff, and killed six of the gunmen. A seventh was captured alive.

(STRINGER/REUTERS)The attack marks an escalation in militant violence that has hit the traditionally moderate Muslim-majority nation with increasing frequency in recent months. Previous attacks involved machete-wielding men singling out individual activists, foreigners and religious minorities.
About two dozen atheist writers, publishers, members of religious minorities, social activists and foreign aid workers have been slain since 2013. On Friday, a Hindu temple worker was hacked to death by at least three assailants in southwest Bangladesh. IS and and Al Qaeda affiliates have claimed responsibility for many of the attacks.
